This artwork by Dipo Andy achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2013. In the Modern and Contemporary Southeast Asian Paintings auction, the work Kultus: Powerful Women sold for HKD 275,000.00 (€ 26,919.43) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 150,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Dipo Andy - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Mendadak Nge-Pop (Suddenly Pop), which sold at auction in October 2008 for HKD 572,000.00 (€ 58,183.25).
