Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
This work without title by Nam June Paik was worth USD 4,410.00 (€ 3,994.57) to a buyer in April this year. This price was achieved in the auction The Sale of the Century: An Important Corporate Collection of Prints and Multiples: Online at Christies in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 1,000.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Nam June Paik achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Fat Boy in October 2016 with an auction result of HKD 4,280,000.00 (€ 503,667.21).
