Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2018 Christies in New York held the auction Post-War and Contemporary Art Afternoon Session, which included this untitled work by Yun Hyong-Keun. The price achieved of USD 225,000.00 (€ 198,710.59) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 180,000.00 – 250,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Yun Hyong-Keun - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Umber-Blue 7-IIII-75, which sold at auction in May 2016 for HKD 4,600,000.00 (€ 531,674.90).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2018 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Post-War and Contemporary Art Afternoon Session durch, in der auch diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Yun Hyong-Keun zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 225.000,00 (€ 198.710,59) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 180.000,00 – 250.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Yun Hyong-Keun mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Umber-Blue 7-IIII-75 beobachtet, die im Mai 2016 für HKD 4.600.000,00 (€ 531.674,90) versteigert wurde.
