Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In October 2016 Sothebys in London held the auction Contemporary Art Day Auction, which included the work I Was Thinking Of Blinky Palermo by Steven Parrino. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 200,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 221,000.00 (€ 246,200.69). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Steven Parrino - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Idol/Idiot, which sold at auction in June 2013 for GBP 566,500.00 (€ 661,206.96).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Oktober 2016 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Contemporary Art Day Auction durch, in der auch die Arbeit I Was Thinking Of Blinky Palermo von Steven Parrino zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 200.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 221.000,00 (€ 246.200,69) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Steven Parrino mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Idol/Idiot beobachtet, die im Juni 2013 für GBP 566.500,00 (€ 661.206,96) versteigert wurde.
