Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2010 Christies in Hong Kong held the auction Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale), which included the work Deme-tai; Evil Beast g-1; Evil Beast h-1; Hitode-uo; Homo Pumilus Gidoronlegio; Hotate-gani; Invidia Miguel; & Superbia Miguel by Hajime Emoto. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of HKD 80,000.00 – 160,000.00, the actual price achieved of HKD 93,750.00 (€ 9,262.81) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Hajime Emoto - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Hammerhead Turtle; Romanian Dragon; Celtic Dragon; Crow Fish (Karasu-uo); Ashura gani; Evil Beast/Skeleton; Chochinimo-modoki; Mr. and Mrs. Frog; Bush Crocodile; & Sansho Unagi, which sold at auction in May 2010 for HKD 312,500.00 (€ 32,465.24).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2010 führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) durch, in der auch die Arbeit Deme-tai; Evil Beast g-1; Evil Beast h-1; Hitode-uo; Homo Pumilus Gidoronlegio; Hotate-gani; Invidia Miguel; & Superbia Miguel von Hajime Emoto zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von HKD 80.000,00 – 160.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von HKD 93.750,00 (€ 9.262,81) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Hajime Emoto mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Hammerhead Turtle; Romanian Dragon; Celtic Dragon; Crow Fish (Karasu-uo); Ashura gani; Evil Beast/Skeleton; Chochinimo-modoki; Mr. and Mrs. Frog; Bush Crocodile; & Sansho Unagi beobachtet, die im Mai 2010 für HKD 312.500,00 (€ 32.465,24) versteigert
