Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Pu Jie achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2007. In the Chinese Contemporary Art II auction, the work Modernization No.3 sold for HKD 132,000.00 (€ 12,359.30) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 60,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Pu Jie - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Internet Time No. 9, which sold at auction in March 2007 for USD 36,000.00 (€ 26,917.90).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Pu Jie erzielte im April 2007 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Chinese Contemporary Art II wurde die Arbeit Modernization No.3 für HKD 132.000,00 (€ 12.359,30) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 60.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Pu Jie mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Internet Time No. 9 beobachtet, die im März 2007 für USD 36.000,00 (€ 26.917,90) versteigert wurde.
