Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Ode to Motherland No.7 by Cai Zhisong was sold in the Chinese and Asian Modern and Contemporary Art auction at POLY in Hong Kong in October 2015. The price achieved of HKD 330,400.00 (€ 38,599.53) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 280,000.00 – 350,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Cai Zhisong - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Custom to Motherland No. 5, which sold at auction in November 2011 for HKD 1,580,000.00 (€ 151,152.90).
