This artwork by Sassan Behnam-Bakhtiar achieved an unexpectedly high price at Phillips in London in March last year. In the 20th Century & Contemporary Art Day Sale auction, the work Sparks of Life sold for GBP 50,400.00 (€ 59,754.87) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 20,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Sassan Behnam-Bakhtiar; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Age of Energy sold at auction in March this year with the realized price of GBP 101,600.00 (€ 115,589.62).
