Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Jason Rhoades could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in March 2020 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Contemporary Art Online | New York auction, the work Mecca Vulva (Sculpture To Illuminate Corner Of Wall) With Tuna Stone changed hands for USD 2,500.00 (€ 2,266.75) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jason Rhoades achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Three-Wheel Waggon-Wheel Chandelier in November this year with an auction result of USD 1,008,000.00 (€ 924,092.41).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Jason Rhoades konnte im März 2020 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Contemporary Art Online | New York wechselte die Arbeit Mecca Vulva (Sculpture To Illuminate Corner Of Wall) With Tuna Stone für USD 2.500,00 (€ 2.266,75) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 6.000,00 – 8.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jason Rhoades erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Three-Wheel Waggon-Wheel Chandelier im November diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.008.000,00 (€ 924.092,41).
