This artwork by Louise Lawler achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in November last year. In the Post-War & Contemporary Art Day Sale auction, the work Does Andy Warhol Make You Cry? sold for USD 340,200.00 (€ 329,555.36) - well above the upper estimate of USD 120,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Louise Lawler; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Monogram sold at auction in May 2012 with the realized price of USD 542,500.00 (€ 438,773.86).
