Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Liu Weijian could be acquired at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2016 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Contemporary Asian Art auction, the work In The Hotel changed hands for HKD 118,750.00 (€ 13,974.41) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of HKD 140,000.00 – 200,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Liu Weijian - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Engine No. 5, which sold at auction in October 2015 for HKD 250,000.00 (€ 29,206.67).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Liu Weijian konnte im Oktober 2016 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Contemporary Asian Art wechselte die Arbeit In The Hotel für HKD 118.750,00 (€ 13.974,41) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von HKD 140.000,00 – 200.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Liu Weijian mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Engine No. 5 beobachtet, die im Oktober 2015 für HKD 250.000,00 (€ 29.206,67) versteigert wurde.
