Description
MICKALENE THOMAS (b. 1971) Origin Of The Universe 3 signed, titled and dated 'Origin Of The Universe 3, 2012 M. Thomas' (on the reverse) rhinestones, acrylic, graphite, oil and enamel on wood panel 44 x 48 in. (111.8 x 121.9 cm.) Executed in 2012.
Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Origin Of The Universe 3 by Mickalene Thomas was worth USD 126,000.00 (€ 123,505.20) to a buyer in July last year. This price was achieved in the auction First Open | Post-War & Contemporary Art at Christies in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 35,000.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mickalene Thomas achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Racquel Reclining Wearing Purple Jumpsuit in May 2021 with an auction result of USD 1,830,000.00 (€ 1,500,738.07).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Die Arbeit Origin Of The Universe 3 von Mickalene Thomas war einem Käufer im Juli letzten Jahres USD 126.000,00 (€ 123.505,20) wert. Dieser Preise wurde in der Auktion First Open | Post-War & Contemporary Art bei Christies in New York erzielt und übertraf den zuvor angesetzten oberen Schätzpreis von USD 35.000,00 um ein Vielfaches. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mickalene Thomas erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Racquel Reclining Wearing Purple Jumpsuit im Mai 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.830.000,00 (€ 1.500.738,07).
