Despite a disappointment, a good price for Wesley Kimler
In July 2021 a collector was able to acquire the work Fallen Balloon by Wesley Kimler for USD 286.88 (€ 241.81). This price was achieved in the auction Post-War & Contemporary Art Online at Bonhams in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 1,000.00 – 2,000.00 set by the auction house. Despite this disappointing result, Fallen Balloon is the most expensive artwork by Wesley Kimler that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Wesley Kimler
Im Juli 2021 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Fallen Balloon von Wesley Kimler für USD 286,88 (€ 241,81) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art Online bei Bonhams in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 1.000,00 – 2.000,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Fallen Balloon das teuerste Kunstwerk von Wesley Kimler, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
