Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Qiu Xiaofei achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2019. In the Contemporary Art Evening Sale auction, the work Zero Gravity No.1 sold for HKD 2,250,000.00 (€ 256,115.53) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 900,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Qiu Xiaofei; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Desolate Wood sold at auction in May 2014 with the realized price of HKD 4,240,000.00 (€ 400,997.07).
