Despite a disappointment, a good price for Rudi Bierman
When the work Icarus val by Rudi Bierman was auctioned at Christies in Amsterdam in June 2002, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of EUR 800.00 – 1,200.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for EUR 717.00. Despite this disappointing result, Icarus val is the most expensive artwork by Rudi Bierman that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Rudi Bierman
Als die Arbeit Icarus val von Rudi Bierman im Juni 2002 bei Christies in Amsterdam versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von EUR 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für EUR 717,00 den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Icarus val das teuerste Kunstwerk von Rudi Bierman, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
