In September 2012 Christies in New York held the auction South Asian Modern & Contemporary, which included the work Untitled (Vitruvian Man) by Khadim Ali. The »bidding war« ended at USD 8,125.00 (€ 6,320.01), 16% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Khadim Ali - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Untitled (Rustam Series), which sold at auction in June 2012 for GBP 11,875.00 (€ 14,704.08).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im September 2012 führte Christies in New York die Auktion South Asian Modern & Contemporary durch, in der auch die Arbeit Untitled (Vitruvian Man) von Khadim Ali zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 8.125,00 (€ 6.320,01) und damit 16% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Khadim Ali mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Untitled (Rustam Series) beobachtet, die im Juni 2012 für GBP 11.875,00 (€ 14.704,08) versteigert wurde.
