This artwork by Jia Aili achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2019. In the ICONOCLAST auction, the work The Wasteland sold for HKD 18,125,000.00 (€ 2,074,401.29) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 10,000,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jia Aili - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Combustion, which sold at auction in November this year for USD 4,769,000.00 (€ 4,372,020.54).
