Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Golden Dawn by Wire Tuazon was sold in the Modern and Contemporary Southeast Asian Paintings auction at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2008. The price achieved of HKD 62,500.00 (€ 6,357.44) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 50,000.00 – 70,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wire Tuazon - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Invisible forest, which sold at auction in May 2010 for HKD 162,500.00 (€ 16,881.92).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Golden Dawn von Wire Tuazon wurde im Oktober 2008 in der Auktion Modern and Contemporary Southeast Asian Paintings bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 62.500,00 (€ 6.357,44) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 50.000,00 – 70.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Wire Tuazon mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Invisible forest beobachtet, die im Mai 2010 für HKD 162.500,00 (€ 16.881,92) versteigert wurde.
