This artwork by Chen Liu achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2010. In the Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) auction, the work New Aerial View Series No. 2 sold for HKD 118,750.00 (€ 12,336.79) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 60,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Chen Liu; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Broken Sky 13 sold at auction in November 2009 with the realized price of HKD 212,500.00 (€ 18,282.31).
