Auction result misses estimated price range
When this work without title by Wolfgang Laib was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2015, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 18,750.00 (€ 17,456.48). Admittedly, works by Wolfgang Laib have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Milkstone in December 2016 with an auction result of EUR 112,500.00.
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Wolfgang Laib im März 2015 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 18.750,00 (€ 17.456,48) den Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Wolfgang Laib auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Milkstone im Dezember 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 112.500,00.
