Upper estimate price exceeded by 50 %.
In October 2018 Christies in New York held the auction The Collection of Melva Bucksbaum: Post-War and Contemporary Art, Photographs and Prints, which included the work Ask the Dust by Joseph Stashkevetch. The »bidding war« ended at USD 15,000.00 (€ 13,236.85), 50% above the upper estimate. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Joseph Stashkevetch; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Clouds #7 (Muni Station) sold at auction in February 2007 with the realized price of USD 18,000.00 (€ 13,605.44).

Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 15.000,00 (€ 13.236,85) und damit 50% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Joseph Stashkevetch; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Clouds #7 (Muni Station) im Februar 2007 mit dem Hammerpreis von USD 18.000,00 (€ 13.605,44).
