Auction result well in line with expectations
In October 2010 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction Contemporary Asian Art, which included the work Citrus Fruit by Ryoji Suzuki. The price achieved of HKD 150,000.00 (€ 13,926.87) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 120,000.00 – 180,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ryoji Suzuki - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Underwear, which sold at auction in May 2008 for HKD 427,500.00 (€ 35,194.57).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Oktober 2010 führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion Contemporary Asian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Citrus Fruit von Ryoji Suzuki zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 150.000,00 (€ 13.926,87) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 120.000,00 – 180.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Ryoji Suzuki mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Underwear beobachtet, die im Mai 2008 für HKD 427.500,00 (€ 35.194,57) versteigert wurde.
