This artwork by Gajin Fujita achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in April this year. In the Made in CaliforniaContemporary Art auction, the work Kiis Dragon, 2000 sold for USD 28,050.00 (€ 25,407.61) - well above the upper estimate of USD 10,000.00. 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Gajin Fujita erzielte im April diesen Jahres bei Bonhams einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Made in CaliforniaContemporary Art wurde die Arbeit Kiis Dragon, 2000 für USD 28.050,00 (€ 25.407,61) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 10.000,00. 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.
