A top price for Maha Malluh - as previously expected
In April 2018 Sothebys in London held the auction 20th Century Art / Middle East, which included the work Saudifood For Thought, Assabeel (From The Food For Thought 9000 Series) by Maha Malluh. The price achieved of GBP 32,500.00 (€ 37,014.04) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 28,000.00 – 35,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Saudifood For Thought, Assabeel (From The Food For Thought 9000 Series) is the most expensive artwork by Maha Malluh that we have observed at auctions so far.

Im April 2018 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion 20th Century Art / Middle East durch, in der auch die Arbeit Saudifood For Thought, Assabeel (From The Food For Thought 9000 Series) von Maha Malluh zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 32.500,00 (€ 37.014,04) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 28.000,00 – 35.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Saudifood For Thought, Assabeel (From The Food For Thought 9000 Series) das teuerste Kunstwerk von Maha Malluh, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
