Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2011 Christies in Hong Kong held the auction Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale), which included the work Knee Slider by Gwon Osang. The price achieved of HKD 162,500.00 (€ 14,536.38) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 120,000.00 – 180,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Gwon Osang - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Action Sampler, which sold at auction in May 2008 for HKD 547,500.00 (€ 45,073.75).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2011 führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) durch, in der auch die Arbeit Knee Slider von Gwon Osang zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 162.500,00 (€ 14.536,38) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 120.000,00 – 180.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Gwon Osang mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Action Sampler beobachtet, die im Mai 2008 für HKD 547.500,00 (€ 45.073,75) versteigert wurde.
