A top price for Yu Chen

This artwork by Yu Chen achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2008. In the Contemporary Chinese Art II auction, the work Mao & Girl (Set Of Two) sold for HKD 427,500.00 (€ 35,231.40) - well above the upper estimate of HKD 150,000.00. This high result makes Mao & Girl (Set Of Two) the most expensive artwork by Yu Chen that we have observed at auctions so far.

In der Auktion Contemporary Chinese Art II wurde die Arbeit Mao & Girl (Set Of Two) für HKD 427.500,00 (€ 35.231,40) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 150.000,00. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Mao & Girl (Set Of Two) zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Yu Chen, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
