A top price for Tomohiro Shimizu - as previously expected
In October 2009 Sothebys in Hong Kong held the auction Contemporary Asian Art, which included the work Under The Water, Still Dark During The Daytime by Tomohiro Shimizu. The price achieved of HKD 50,000.00 (€ 4,371.40) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Under The Water, Still Dark During The Daytime is the most expensive artwork by Tomohiro Shimizu that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Oktober 2009 führte Sothebys in Hong Kong die Auktion Contemporary Asian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Under The Water, Still Dark During The Daytime von Tomohiro Shimizu zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 50.000,00 (€ 4.371,40) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Under The Water, Still Dark During The Daytime das teuerste Kunstwerk von Tomohiro Shimizu, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
