Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Untitled (A1-Motor) by Wallace Berman was auctioned at Christies in New York in December 2018. The price achieved of USD 37,500.00 (€ 32,733.94) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Admittedly, works by Wallace Berman have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Radio/Aether, 1966 in September last year with an auction result of USD 164,175.00 (€ 167,816.62).

Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 37.500,00 (€ 32.733,94) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben worden.
