Upper estimate price exceeded by 25 %.
In June 2014 Sothebys in New York held the auction Contemporary Curated, which included the work Childhood by Guo Hongwei. The »bidding war« ended at USD 8,750.00 (€ 6,391.53), 25% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Guo Hongwei - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Plant No. 12, which sold at auction in October 2016 for HKD 137,500.00 (€ 16,180.90).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 25 % übertroffen
Im Juni 2014 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Contemporary Curated durch, in der auch die Arbeit Childhood von Guo Hongwei zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 8.750,00 (€ 6.391,53) und damit 25% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Guo Hongwei mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Plant No. 12 beobachtet, die im Oktober 2016 für HKD 137.500,00 (€ 16.180,90) versteigert wurde.
