Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Scissors and Corridor by Mao Xuhui was sold in the Modern & Contemporary Art Online: Come Fly with Me auction at Christies in Hong Kong in July 2020. The price achieved of HKD 325,000.00 (€ 35,608.12) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 240,000.00 – 380,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mao Xuhui achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work '92 Paternalism in November 2010 with an auction result of HKD 11,860,000.00 (€ 1,171,807.30).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Scissors and Corridor von Mao Xuhui wurde im Juli 2020 in der Auktion Modern & Contemporary Art Online: Come Fly with Me bei Christies in Hong Kong versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 325.000,00 (€ 35.608,12) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 240.000,00 – 380.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mao Xuhui erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit '92 Paternalism im November 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 11.860.000,00 (€ 1.171.807,30).
