Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Iron Heart, 2000 by Gajin Fujita was sold in the Post War & Contemporary Art auction at Bonhams in February this year. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 25,000.00 – 35,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 25,500.00 (€ 24,052.07) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Gajin Fujita - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Gold State Warriors, which sold at auction in May 2010 for USD 104,500.00 (€ 84,485.41).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Iron Heart, 2000 von Gajin Fujita wurde im Februar diesen Jahres in der Auktion Post War & Contemporary Art bei Bonhams versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 25.000,00 – 35.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 25.500,00 (€ 24.052,07) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Gajin Fujita mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Gold State Warriors beobachtet, die im Mai 2010 für USD 104.500,00 (€ 84.485,41) versteigert wurde.
