Upper estimate price exceeded by 30 %.

In June 2015 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction Boundless: Contemporary Art, which included the work Spiral Light by Tom Dixon. The »bidding war« ended at HKD 32,500.00 (€ 3,758.74), 30% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Tom Dixon - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Cu29 Chair, which sold at auction in September 2017 for USD 12,500.00 (€ 10,581.56).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 30 % übertroffen

Im Juni 2015 führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion Boundless: Contemporary Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Spiral Light von Tom Dixon zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von HKD 32.500,00 (€ 3.758,74) und damit 30% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Tom Dixon mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Cu29 Chair beobachtet, die im September 2017 für USD 12.500,00 (€ 10.581,56) versteigert wurde.
