Auction result misses estimated price range

In December 2021 a collector was able to acquire the work Three Flags for 1 Space and 6 Regions by Vito Acconci for USD 2,772.00 (€ 2,449.20). This price was achieved in the auction Prints & Multiples at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Vito Acconci achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Thirty-Five Approaches in November 2014 with an auction result of USD 78,125.00 (€ 62,811.55).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Im Dezember 2021 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Three Flags for 1 Space and 6 Regions von Vito Acconci für USD 2.772,00 (€ 2.449,20) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Prints & Multiples bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Vito Acconci erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Thirty-Five Approaches im November 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 78.125,00 (€ 62.811,55).
