In May 2013 Christies in Hong Kong held the auction Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale), which included the work Far-Flung Weed Beach series: Flowers in the Summer by Chen Shuzhong. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 300,000.00 (€ 29,750.54), 15% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Chen Shuzhong - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Wild Grassland Series No.26 (Diptych), which sold at auction in June 2014 for CNY 849,600.00 (€ 100,040.56).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Mai 2013 führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) durch, in der auch die Arbeit Far-Flung Weed Beach series: Flowers in the Summer von Chen Shuzhong zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 300.000,00 (€ 29.750,54) und damit 15% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Chen Shuzhong mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Wild Grassland Series No.26 (Diptych) beobachtet, die im Juni 2014 für CNY 849.600,00 (€ 100.040,56) versteigert wurde.
