This artwork by Choi So-Young achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2012. In the Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) auction, the work Crossing sold for HKD 560,000.00 (€ 58,337.11) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 300,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Choi So-Young - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Snow Covered Landscape, which sold at auction in May 2016 for HKD 1,960,000.00 (€ 226,539.74).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 87 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Choi So-Young erzielte im Mai 2012 bei Christies in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) wurde die Arbeit Crossing für HKD 560.000,00 (€ 58.337,11) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 300.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Choi So-Young mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Snow Covered Landscape beobachtet, die im Mai 2016 für HKD 1.960.000,00 (€ 226.539,74) versteigert wurde.
