Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work In An American Room-Revolution by Zhang Wei was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in September 2007. It achieved a price of USD 61,000.00 (€ 42,900.34), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 22%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Zhang Wei - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Ac12, which sold at auction in October 2015 for HKD 1,125,000.00 (€ 131,429.99).
