This artwork by Jigger Cruz achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2016. In the Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) auction, the work without title sold for HKD 437,500.00 (€ 50,566.91) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 250,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jigger Cruz - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Jazz In A Restless Landscape Of Silhouettes And Screeches, which sold at auction in April 2015 for HKD 1,125,000.00 (€ 130,017.02).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 75 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Jigger Cruz erzielte im Mai 2016 bei Christies in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) wurde diese Arbeit ohne Titel für HKD 437.500,00 (€ 50.566,91) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 250.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Jigger Cruz mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Jazz In A Restless Landscape Of Silhouettes And Screeches beobachtet, die im April 2015 für HKD 1.125.000,00 (€ 130.017,02) versteigert wurde.
