In March 2021 Christies in London held the auction First Open: Post-War & Contemporary Art Online, which included the work Untitled (Predators, Indian Springs, Nv) by Trevor Paglen. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 10,625.00 (€ 12,481.64), 52% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Trevor Paglen - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Discarded Rocket Body Approaching the Disk of the Moon (SL-8 R/B), which sold at auction in November 2021 for USD 43,750.00 (€ 38,761.41).

Im März 2021 führte Christies in London die Auktion First Open: Post-War & Contemporary Art Online durch, in der auch die Arbeit Untitled (Predators, Indian Springs, Nv) von Trevor Paglen zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 10.625,00 (€ 12.481,64) und damit 52% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Trevor Paglen mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Discarded Rocket Body Approaching the Disk of the Moon (SL-8 R/B) beobachtet, die im November 2021 für USD 43.750,00 (€ 38.761,41) versteigert wurde.
