A top price for Joseph Decker - as previously expected
The work Hard Candy by Joseph Decker was auctioned at Christies in New York in November 2000. The price achieved of USD 116,000.00 (€ 133,425.35) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 100,000.00 – 150,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Hard Candy is the most expensive artwork by Joseph Decker that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Hard Candy von Joseph Decker kam im November 2000 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 116.000,00 (€ 133.425,35) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 100.000,00 – 150.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Hard Candy das teuerste Kunstwerk von Joseph Decker, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
