A top price for Kang Kanghoon - as previously expected
The work Modern Boy: Your Toy by Kang Kanghoon was sold in the Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) auction at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2011. The auction ended at the price of HKD 100,000.00 (€ 8,945.46), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of HKD 80,000.00 – 100,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Modern Boy: Your Toy is the most expensive artwork by Kang Kanghoon that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Modern Boy: Your Toy von Kang Kanghoon wurde im Mai 2011 in der Auktion Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) bei Christies in Hong Kong versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von HKD 100.000,00 (€ 8.945,46) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von HKD 80.000,00 – 100.000,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Modern Boy: Your Toy das teuerste Kunstwerk von Kang Kanghoon, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
