Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Between The Riots by Shay Kun was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in September 2015, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 9,375.00 (€ 8,399.03). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Shay Kun - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Naked In Death, which sold at auction in March 2015 for USD 28,125.00 (€ 26,184.71).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Between The Riots von Shay Kun im September 2015 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 9.375,00 (€ 8.399,03) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Shay Kun mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Naked In Death beobachtet, die im März 2015 für USD 28.125,00 (€ 26.184,71) versteigert wurde.
