Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Snob Sport by Keith Looby was sold in the AUSTRALIAN AND INTERNATIONAL PAINTINGS auction at Christies in Melbourne in November 2000. The price achieved of AUD 5,170.00 (€ 3,129.12) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as AUD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Keith Looby - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Family, which sold at auction in May 2005 for AUD 17,925.00 (€ 11,018.60).
