Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Subtiles nuées by Chu Teh-Chun was sold in the Modern and Contemporary Art Evening Sale auction at POLY in Hong Kong in July last year. The price achieved of HKD 18,240,000.00 (€ 2,275,977.26) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 15,000,000.00 – 25,000,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Chu Teh-Chun achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Harmonie Hivernale in April 2021 with an auction result of HKD 229,568,000.00 (€ 24,578,851.54).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Subtiles nuées von Chu Teh-Chun wurde im Juli letzten Jahres in der Auktion Modern and Contemporary Art Evening Sale bei POLY in Hong Kong versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 18.240.000,00 (€ 2.275.977,26) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 15.000.000,00 – 25.000.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Chu Teh-Chun erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Harmonie Hivernale im April 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 229.568.000,00 (€ 24.578.851,54).
