The work Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York by Pupuk DP was sold in the Southeast Asian Modern and Contemporary Art auction at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2011. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 100,000.00 (€ 8,945.46), 25% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Pupuk DP - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Ekspresi Turki, which sold at auction in October 2008 for HKD 187,500.00 (€ 19,072.31).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 25 % übertroffen
