Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Minister of Finance, Dying to be Men Series, 2009 by Kudzanai Chiurai was sold in the Modern and Contemporary African Art auction at Sothebys in London in March 2021. The price achieved of GBP 6,300.00 (€ 7,400.88) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Kudzanai Chiurai - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Zimbabwean enterprise , which sold at auction in October 2018 for GBP 16,250.00 (€ 18,324.99).
