Upper estimate price exceeded by 49 %.
The work MJA 24 (Memory of John Altoon), 1979 by Larry Bell was sold in the Made in CaliforniaContemporary Art auction at Bonhams in April this year. It achieved a price of USD 17,850.00 (€ 16,168.48), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 49%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Larry Bell achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work without title in May 2008 with an auction result of USD 623,400.00 (€ 400,642.67).

Die Arbeit MJA 24 (Memory of John Altoon), 1979 von Larry Bell wurde im April diesen Jahres in der Auktion Made in CaliforniaContemporary Art bei Bonhams versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 17.850,00 (€ 16.168,48) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 49%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Larry Bell erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ohne Titel im Mai 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 623.400,00 (€ 400.642,67).
