Despite a disappointment, a good price for Laurie Anderson
This work of art by Laurie Anderson could be acquired at Christies in New York in October 2018 for an unexpectedly low price. In the The Collection of Melva Bucksbaum: Post-War and Contemporary Art, Photographs and Prints auction, the work Dream Book changed hands for USD 5,000.00 (€ 4,412.28) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. Despite this disappointing result, Dream Book is the most expensive artwork by Laurie Anderson that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Laurie Anderson
Dieses Kunstwerk von Laurie Anderson konnte im Oktober 2018 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion The Collection of Melva Bucksbaum: Post-War and Contemporary Art, Photographs and Prints wechselte die Arbeit Dream Book für USD 5.000,00 (€ 4.412,28) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 8.000,00 – 12.000,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Dream Book das teuerste Kunstwerk von Laurie Anderson, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
