Auction result well in line with expectations

In March 2016 Christies in Dubai held the auction Modern & Contemporary Art, which included the work Chasing Utopia Ii by Walid Siti. The price achieved of USD 12,500.00 (€ 10,974.54) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Walid Siti - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Three Point View, which sold at auction in March 2015 for USD 31,250.00 (€ 29,094.13).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im März 2016 führte Christies in Dubai die Auktion Modern & Contemporary Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Chasing Utopia Ii von Walid Siti zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 12.500,00 (€ 10.974,54) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Walid Siti mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Three Point View beobachtet, die im März 2015 für USD 31.250,00 (€ 29.094,13) versteigert wurde.
