Upper estimate price exceeded by 51 %.
The work Goal Posts by Red Grooms was sold in the Post-War to Present auction at Christies in New York in March this year. It achieved a price of USD 7,560.00 (€ 6,953.64), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 51%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Red Grooms achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Joltin' Joe Takes a Swing in May 2001 with an auction result of USD 70,500.00 (€ 83,382.61).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 51 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Goal Posts von Red Grooms wurde im März diesen Jahres in der Auktion Post-War to Present bei Christies in New York versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 7.560,00 (€ 6.953,64) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 51%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Red Grooms erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Joltin' Joe Takes a Swing im Mai 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 70.500,00 (€ 83.382,61).
