A top price for Shirin Aliabadi
When the work Miss Hybrid # 4 by Shirin Aliabadi was auctioned at Christies in Dubai in April 2008, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 10,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at USD 55,000.00 (€ 35,328.88). This high result makes Miss Hybrid # 4 the most expensive artwork by Shirin Aliabadi that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Shirin Aliabadi
Als die Arbeit Miss Hybrid # 4 von Shirin Aliabadi im April 2008 bei Christies in Dubai versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 10.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 55.000,00 (€ 35.328,88) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Miss Hybrid # 4 zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Shirin Aliabadi, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
