Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Mao Xuhui achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in May 2018. In the Contemporary Art Asia: New York Edition auction, the work The Isolated Island sold for USD 17,500.00 (€ 14,995.72) - well above the upper estimate of USD 8,000.00. 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Mao Xuhui erzielte im Mai 2018 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Contemporary Art Asia: New York Edition wurde die Arbeit The Isolated Island für USD 17.500,00 (€ 14.995,72) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 8.000,00. 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).
