Auction result well in line with expectations
This work without title by Mukai Shuji was auctioned at Phillips in New York in May 2019. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 22,500.00 (€ 20,181.18) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mukai Shuji - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Work 11, which sold at auction in October 2016 for HKD 350,000.00 (€ 41,187.74).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Mukai Shuji kam im Mai 2019 bei Phillips in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 22.500,00 (€ 20.181,18) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Mukai Shuji mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Work 11 beobachtet, die im Oktober 2016 für HKD 350.000,00 (€ 41.187,74) versteigert wurde.
