In May 2011 Christies in Hong Kong held the auction Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale), which included the work ACARDIA: Even Though My Past was Dark by Seong Tae-Jin. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 75,000.00 (€ 6,709.10), 25% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Seong Tae-Jin - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Manjeong-ri 637; & Manjeong-ri 637, which sold at auction in May 2010 for HKD 175,000.00 (€ 18,180.53).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 25 % übertroffen
Im Mai 2011 führte Christies in Hong Kong die Auktion Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) durch, in der auch die Arbeit ACARDIA: Even Though My Past was Dark von Seong Tae-Jin zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 75.000,00 (€ 6.709,10) und damit 25% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Seong Tae-Jin mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Manjeong-ri 637; & Manjeong-ri 637 beobachtet, die im Mai 2010 für HKD 175.000,00 (€ 18.180,53) versteigert wurde.
