This artwork by John Baldessari achieved an unexpectedly high price at Phillips in New York in March last year. In the Editions & Works on Paper auction, the work I Will Not Make Anymore Boring Art (Wallpaper) sold for USD 3,528.00 (€ 3,180.38) - well above the upper estimate of USD 1,800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Baldessari achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Commissioned Painting: A Painting By Edgar Transue in May 2014 with an auction result of USD 2,517,000.00 (€ 1,845,307.92).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 96 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von John Baldessari erzielte im März letzten Jahres bei Phillips in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Editions & Works on Paper wurde die Arbeit I Will Not Make Anymore Boring Art (Wallpaper) für USD 3.528,00 (€ 3.180,38) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 1.800,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Baldessari erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Commissioned Painting: A Painting By Edgar Transue im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.517.000,00 (€ 1.845.307,92).
