In May 2006 Christies in Hong Kong held the auction Asian Contemporary Art, which included the work Diorama (Subway) by Chiharu Nishizawa. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 102,000.00 (€ 10,245.31), 70% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Chiharu Nishizawa have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Enjoy Car Life - C in May 2008 with an auction result of HKD 667,500.00 (€ 54,952.92).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 70 % übertroffen
Im Mai 2006 führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion Asian Contemporary Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Diorama (Subway) von Chiharu Nishizawa zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 102.000,00 (€ 10.245,31) und damit 70% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Chiharu Nishizawa auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Enjoy Car Life - C im Mai 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 667.500,00 (€ 54.952,92).
