The work Blue World by Oluwole Omofemi was worth USD 119,700.00 (€ 111,545.99) to a buyer in May last year. This price was achieved in the auction 20th Century & Contemporary Art Day Sale, Afternoon Session at Phillips in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 30,000.00 many times over.
