Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Crying by Yin Jun was sold in the Contemporary Art Part II auction at Phillips in New York in November 2008. The price achieved of USD 11,875.00 (€ 9,354.81) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Yin Jun - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Crying No. 3, which sold at auction in September 2008 for USD 50,000.00 (€ 35,508.84).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Crying von Yin Jun wurde im November 2008 in der Auktion Contemporary Art Part II bei Phillips in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 11.875,00 (€ 9.354,81) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Yin Jun mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Crying No. 3 beobachtet, die im September 2008 für USD 50.000,00 (€ 35.508,84) versteigert wurde.
