The work I Got Up... by On Kawara was auctioned at Christies in October 2021. It achieved a price of USD 87,500.00 (€ 75,744.46), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 59%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by On Kawara achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Untitled (Decade) in May 2017 with an auction result of USD 4,175,000.00 (€ 3,715,735.14).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 59 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit I Got Up... von On Kawara kam im Oktober 2021 bei Christies zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 87.500,00 (€ 75.744,46) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 59%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von On Kawara erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Untitled (Decade) im Mai 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 4.175.000,00 (€ 3.715.735,14).
