In May 2010 Christies in Hong Kong held the auction Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale), which included this untitled work by Atsushi Suwa. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 300,000.00 (€ 31,166.63), 25% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Atsushi Suwa - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Sleepers, which sold at auction in May 2014 for HKD 1,240,000.00 (€ 117,272.73).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 25 % übertroffen
Im Mai 2010 führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) durch, in der auch diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Atsushi Suwa zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 300.000,00 (€ 31.166,63) und damit 25% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Atsushi Suwa mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Sleepers beobachtet, die im Mai 2014 für HKD 1.240.000,00 (€ 117.272,73) versteigert wurde.
