Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Typewriter with Flour by Rodney Graham was worth USD 47,880.00 (€ 44,756.03) to a buyer in December last year. This price was achieved in the auction First Open | Post-War & Contemporary Art at Christies in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 12,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Rodney Graham - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Inverted Drip Painting #47, which sold at auction in October 2018 for GBP 150,000.00 (€ 169,153.72).
