Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Hard by Lee Lozano was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in May 2018, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 180,000.00 – 250,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 175,000.00 (€ 149,957.16). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Lee Lozano - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work No title, which sold at auction in November 2010 for USD 602,500.00 (€ 462,181.65).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Hard von Lee Lozano im Mai 2018 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 180.000,00 – 250.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 175.000,00 (€ 149.957,16) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Lee Lozano mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit No title beobachtet, die im November 2010 für USD 602.500,00 (€ 462.181,65) versteigert wurde.
