In April 2008 Christies in Tel Aviv held the auction 19th & 20th Century Art at the Hilton Hotel, which included the work Red Backgammon by Tsibi Geva. The »bidding war« ended at USD 27,400.00 (€ 17,600.21), 37% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Tsibi Geva - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Untitled (Diptych), which sold at auction in December 2015 for USD 43,750.00 (€ 40,289.16).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 37 % übertroffen

Im April 2008 führte Christies in Tel Aviv die Auktion 19th & 20th Century Art at the Hilton Hotel durch, in der auch die Arbeit Red Backgammon von Tsibi Geva zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 27.400,00 (€ 17.600,21) und damit 37% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Tsibi Geva mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Untitled (Diptych) beobachtet, die im Dezember 2015 für USD 43.750,00 (€ 40.289,16) versteigert wurde.
