## About Jorg Reme

Jörg Christian Remé (born 4 February 1941) is a Dutch-German painter, graphic artist, and printmaker who has been active in the Netherlands since the 1960s. He trained between 1959 and 1966 and later taught at an art academy from 1975 onward, contributing to several generations of Dutch artists. Remé's practice spans painting, printmaking, and graphic work, and his output is documented across 195 catalogue entries at the RKD – Netherlands Institute for Art History. He established the Stichting Remé Art Foundation to steward and promote his body of work. Notable series titles associated with his practice include Das Augenmesser and Beeldenvanger. Collectors most often encounter Remé's work through Dutch and Continental auction circuits, where his prints and paintings appear with notable frequency.

## Common works and media

Collectors and appraisers may encounter Remé's work as oil or acrylic paintings on canvas, graphic prints and editioned multiples, and works on paper including drawings and print proofs. Printmaking appears to be a significant portion of his output. Subject matter and style details are not well documented in the available authority sources, so each work should be assessed individually for medium, date, signature, and condition.

## Market and appraisal context

Jorg Remé's work circulates primarily through mid-tier European auction houses and one US-based gallery auction platform. The Appraisily auction-record index tracks 15 lots spanning 2011 to early 2025, with six named houses handling his material. Only three of those lots have recorded realized prices, ranging from €90 to €200 (median €195), all denominated in EUR. The priced lots are works on paper — colored-pencil drawings and a group of four surrealist portraits — sold between 2021 and 2021 at Cornette de Saint-Cyr Bruxelles and Auktionshaus Wendl. The remaining 12 lots are almost exclusively lithographs and art prints offered by RoGallery (New York), Rietveld Art House, Derksen Veilingbedrijf, and Venduehuis Dickhaut Maastricht, none with published results. Liquidity is thin: zero lots appeared in the most recent 12 months, and only one lot in the prior 12-month window. The market is predominantly print-focused and concentrated in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany, with occasional US exposure through RoGallery.

### Appraisal notes

When appraising a Remé work, Appraisily would combine these auction records with client-supplied photographs, exact dimensions, medium identification (oil, acrylic, lithograph, colored pencil on paper, etc.), signature and date examination, condition report, provenance documentation, and edition details for prints (plate number, edition size, paper type). The three comparable priced lots provide a narrow benchmark for works on paper (€90–€200), but no painting sale results are available, so oil or acrylic paintings on canvas would require broader Dutch contemporary-art comparable analysis. Print lots should be checked against edition numbers observed in recent listings (e.g., 136/190 noted on a 1973 lithograph). Attribution should be cross-referenced with the RKD catalogue entry (artist ID 66221) and the Stichting Remé Art Foundation records.

### Valuation factors

- Medium: paintings on canvas or panel are unrepresented in priced auction records and likely carry a premium over prints and works on paper
- Edition specifics for prints: edition size, plate number, and paper quality (e.g., the 1973 lithograph numbered 136/190 suggests large editions, which may limit per-print value)
- Date of execution relative to training period (1959–1966) and teaching career (from 1975): earlier works and teaching-era pieces may carry different market weight
- Condition: works on paper from the 1960s–1970s should be assessed for foxing, fading, and acid migration
- Signature and dating: several priced lots are signed and dated, which strengthens attribution
- Series association: works from named series (Das Augenmesser, Beeldenvanger) may attract specialist collector interest
- Provenance and RKD catalogue confirmation: 195 catalogue entries at RKD provide a robust attribution baseline

### Collector notes

- Remé's prints appear frequently at auction but in relatively large editions (e.g., 190), which keeps individual print prices modest. Collectors seeking value should focus on unique works — paintings, original drawings, or early signed and dated pieces — as these have no direct comparable in the available record and may outperform prints. The Cornette de Saint-Cyr and Auktionshaus Wendl results suggest a €90–€200 band for works on paper, providing a realistic expectations baseline. Buyers should verify edition numbers and confirm attribution through RKD records before purchasing at the upper end of that range. The absence of recent auction activity (zero lots in the trailing 12 months) may indicate reduced market momentum or simply that inventory is absorbed into private channels.

### Market caveats

- Only 3 of 15 tracked lots have realized prices; the remaining 12 lack price data, so the observed range (€90–€200) may not represent the full market spectrum.
- No painting (canvas or panel) sale results appear in the record, so valuation guidance for paintings is extrapolative.
- The dataset is dominated by prints and works on paper, which may understate the market for other media.
- All priced lots are EUR-denominated; currency conversion may affect USD-based comparisons.
- Zero lots in the most recent 12 months limits the reliability of current-market assessments.
- No major auction-house (Christie's, Sotheby's, Bonhams) results are present; the market is entirely mid-tier.
- Attribution caveats from the existing profile apply: unsigned or loosely attributed pieces appear in secondary channels and should be verified against RKD.
