The work Fabrik (mit Namen) by Thomas Demand was sold in the 20th c. and Contemporary Art Day Sale - Afternoon Session auction at Phillips in New York in December 2020. It achieved a price of USD 42,840.00 (€ 35,028.62), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 43%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Thomas Demand achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Yellowcake (Embassy I,II, III, IV, IV.a, V, VI, VII, VII.a) in May 2015 with an auction result of USD 413,000.00 (€ 375,659.45).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 43 % übertroffen
