New Asger Jorn record

In September 2003 I blogged that a new record had been set for an Asger Jorn painting, "Titania I", at 4,619,000 Danish kroner. Auctioneers Bruun Rasmussen tonight beat that by 1,781,000 Danish kroner tonight when they sold "Tristesse Blanche" ("White Sadness") for 6,400,000 Danish kroner (the link is probably time limited) at an auction of 100 works by CoBrA artists, raising 30,000,000 DKK in total.
