Upper estimate price exceeded by 40 %.
In December 2020 Phillips in Hong Kong held the auction 20th Century & Contemporary Art & Design Day Sale in Association with Poly Auction, which included the work Two works: (i-ii) The Disappearance of Time by Qiu Xiaofei. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 252,000.00 (€ 26,580.54), 40% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Qiu Xiaofei achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Desolate Wood in May 2014 with an auction result of HKD 4,240,000.00 (€ 400,997.07).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 40 % übertroffen
Im Dezember 2020 führte Phillips in Hong Kong die Auktion 20th Century & Contemporary Art & Design Day Sale in Association with Poly Auction durch, in der auch die Arbeit Two works: (i-ii) The Disappearance of Time von Qiu Xiaofei zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 252.000,00 (€ 26.580,54) und damit 40% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Qiu Xiaofei erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Desolate Wood im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 4.240.000,00 (€ 400.997,07).
