A top price for Ma Ke
In April this year POLY in Grand Hyatt Hong Kong held the auction Modern and Contemporary Art, which included the work The Correct Posture of Youth by Ma Ke. Here, the upper estimate of HKD 800,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for HKD 840,000.00 (€ 857,804.35). With this result, The Correct Posture of Youth is even the most expensive work of art by Ma Ke that we have observed at auctions so far.
