In August last year Bonhams in Sidney held the auction Important Australian Art, which included the work Look in Their Eyes and You'll See Me (Ellen), 2003 by Jason Benjamin. The »bidding war« ended at AUD 31,980.00 (€ 21,815.67), 60% above the upper estimate. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Jason Benjamin; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot No Borders, No Fences sold at auction in August 2004 with the realized price of AUD 38,240.00 (€ 22,194.45).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 60 % übertroffen
Im August letzten Jahres führte Bonhams in Sidney die Auktion Important Australian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Look in Their Eyes and You'll See Me (Ellen), 2003 von Jason Benjamin zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von AUD 31.980,00 (€ 21.815,67) und damit 60% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Jason Benjamin; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit No Borders, No Fences im August 2004 mit dem Hammerpreis von AUD 38.240,00 (€ 22.194,45).
