Auction result misses estimated price range
In September 2008 a collector was able to acquire the work Disconnexion Series, B2 & A3 And Urban Fiction 4 (3 Works) by Xing Danwen for HKD 7,500.00 (€ 686.03). This price was achieved in the auction Contemporary Art Asia at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of HKD 65,000.00 – 95,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Xing Danwen achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Urban Fiction 3 in June 2007 with an auction result of GBP 10,200.00 (€ 15,136.29).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im September 2008 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Disconnexion Series, B2 & A3 And Urban Fiction 4 (3 Works) von Xing Danwen für HKD 7.500,00 (€ 686,03) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Contemporary Art Asia bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von HKD 65.000,00 – 95.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Xing Danwen erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Urban Fiction 3 im Juni 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 10.200,00 (€ 15.136,29).
