Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Guo Hongwei could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in March 2013 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Passion + Transmission: International Contemporary Art from the CAP Collection auction, the work Childhood changed hands for USD 8,125.00 (€ 6,339.73) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. 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).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Guo Hongwei konnte im März 2013 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Passion + Transmission: International Contemporary Art from the CAP Collection wechselte die Arbeit Childhood für USD 8.125,00 (€ 6.339,73) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00. 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.
