Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Stories to Be Told, #5, 2017 by Kiley Ames was auctioned at Bonhams in Los Angeles in May last year, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 600.00 – 800.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 255.00 (€ 237.63). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Kiley Ames - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work It was a Mystery All Insoluble, 2016, which sold at auction in January 2024 for USD 1,024.00 (€ 894.95).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Stories to Be Told, #5, 2017 von Kiley Ames im Mai letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in Los Angeles versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 600,00 – 800,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 255,00 (€ 237,63) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Kiley Ames mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit It was a Mystery All Insoluble, 2016 beobachtet, die im Januar 2024 für USD 1.024,00 (€ 894,95) versteigert wurde.
