Auction result well in line with expectations
In April this year Christies in Hong Kong held the auction NO REGRETS: 20th/21st Century Art Online Sale, which included the work Indoor with Mosquito and Moth Series No. 36 by Guo Wei. The price achieved of HKD 27,720.00 (€ 28,307.54) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 20,000.00 – 40,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Guo Wei - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Bathroom Series No. 4, which sold at auction in May 2008 for HKD 1,327,500.00 (€ 109,288.40).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im April diesen Jahres führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion NO REGRETS: 20th/21st Century Art Online Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Indoor with Mosquito and Moth Series No. 36 von Guo Wei zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 27.720,00 (€ 28.307,54) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 20.000,00 – 40.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Guo Wei mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Bathroom Series No. 4 beobachtet, die im Mai 2008 für HKD 1.327.500,00 (€ 109.288,40) versteigert wurde.
