In August 2021 Bonhams in Los Angeles held the auction Modern Native American ArtFeaturing the Wendy and Les Fisher Collection of Canadian Inuit Sculpture, which included the work A Kevin Red Star Painting, "Snowy Camp," 1981 by Kevin Red Star. The »bidding war« ended at USD 7,012.50 (€ 5,942.80), 40% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Kevin Red Star have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work "Parading Crow Indian Chiefs of Montana, U.S.A.," 2001 in August last year with an auction result of USD 28,050.00 (€ 27,868.85).
