The work Final Corner by Hiroshi Kobayashi was sold in the Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) auction at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2009. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 375,000.00 (€ 34,245.36), 44% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Hiroshi Kobayashi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Step into the Mist, which sold at auction in November 2009 for HKD 980,000.00 (€ 84,313.73).
