A top price for Yasumasa Morimura
When the work An Inner Dialogue with Frida Kahlo by Yasumasa Morimura was auctioned at Phillips in New York in November 2006, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 20,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 66,000.00 (€ 49,770.00). This high result makes An Inner Dialogue with Frida Kahlo the most expensive artwork by Yasumasa Morimura that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Yasumasa Morimura
Als die Arbeit An Inner Dialogue with Frida Kahlo von Yasumasa Morimura im November 2006 bei Phillips in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 20.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 66.000,00 (€ 49.770,00) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht An Inner Dialogue with Frida Kahlo zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Yasumasa Morimura, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
