The paper deals with some extensions of the Keller-Dykhneduality relations arising in the classical homogenization of two-dimensional uniformly bounded conductivities, to the case of high-contrast conductivities. Only assuming a $L^1$-bound on the conductivity we prove that the conductivity and its dual converge respectively, in a suitable sense, to the homogenized conductivity and its dual. In the periodic case a similar duality result is obtained under a less restrictive assumption.
