Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Transparent Ecology No. 3, 2001 by Li Wei was auctioned at Sothebys in London in May 2008. The result of GBP 3,000.00 (€ 3,816.13) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Li Wei - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Freedegree Over 29Th Story, Soho, Beijing, 2003, which sold at auction in May 2008 for GBP 11,250.00 (€ 14,310.49).
