This artwork by Chen Liu achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2009. In the Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) auction, the work The Segmented Series sold for HKD 175,000.00 (€ 15,981.17) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 100,000.00. 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).
