Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Crated Monkey by Mehmet Güleryüz was sold in the Contemporary Art Turkish auction at Sothebys in London in March 2009. The price achieved of GBP 46,850.00 (€ 50,520.70) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mehmet Güleryüz - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Iki Yaka (The Two Banks), which sold at auction in April 2012 for GBP 97,250.00 (€ 119,274.42).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Crated Monkey von Mehmet Güleryüz wurde im März 2009 in der Auktion Contemporary Art Turkish bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 46.850,00 (€ 50.520,70) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Mehmet Güleryüz mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Iki Yaka (The Two Banks) beobachtet, die im April 2012 für GBP 97.250,00 (€ 119.274,42) versteigert wurde.
