A top price for Li Shurui - as previously expected
The work Polar Lights No. 10 by Li Shurui was sold in the Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) auction at Christies in Hong Kong in November 2015. The result of HKD 200,000.00 (€ 24,427.19) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of HKD 200,000.00 – 300,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Polar Lights No. 10 is the most expensive artwork by Li Shurui that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Polar Lights No. 10 von Li Shurui wurde im November 2015 in der Auktion Asian Contemporary Art (Day Sale) bei Christies in Hong Kong versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von HKD 200.000,00 (€ 24.427,19) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von HKD 200.000,00 – 300.000,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Polar Lights No. 10 das teuerste Kunstwerk von Li Shurui, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
