A top price for Murat Germen - as previously expected
The work Muta-morphosis Istanbul collage by Murat Germen was auctioned at Christies in Dubai in October 2011. The price achieved of USD 50,000.00 (€ 35,850.00) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Muta-morphosis Istanbul collage is the most expensive artwork by Murat Germen that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Muta-morphosis Istanbul collage von Murat Germen kam im Oktober 2011 bei Christies in Dubai zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 50.000,00 (€ 35.850,00) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Muta-morphosis Istanbul collage das teuerste Kunstwerk von Murat Germen, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
