A top price for Renate Bertlmann
When the work Boris lügt (Boris is Lying) by Renate Bertlmann was auctioned at Christies in Amsterdam in November 2019, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at - in retrospect quite modest - EUR 1,800.00 but the actual price achieved was more than 11 times as high at EUR 21,250.00. This high result makes Boris lügt (Boris is Lying) the most expensive artwork by Renate Bertlmann that we have observed at auctions so far.
