Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In March 2008 Christies in New York held the auction South Asian Modern + Contemporary Art, which included the work Descent by Bari Kumar. The »bidding war« ended at USD 46,600.00 (€ 29,484.34), 17% above the upper estimate. Other works by Bari Kumar have achieved even higher prices, we observed the highest auction result so far of HKD 391,500.00 (€ 32,230.82) in May 2008 for the work Silence II.
