Auction result well in line with expectations
The work New Tokyo Ferry Terminal (Ariake 4-chrome) by Mr. was auctioned at Christies in London in July last year. The price achieved of GBP 132,300.00 (€ 157,989.70) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 100,000.00 – 150,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mr. achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Exercising My Telekinetic Powers (Painted In 2012) in April this year with an auction result of HKD 4,560,000.00 (€ 4,656,652.17).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit New Tokyo Ferry Terminal (Ariake 4-chrome) von Mr. kam im Juli letzten Jahres bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 132.300,00 (€ 157.989,70) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 100.000,00 – 150.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mr. erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Exercising My Telekinetic Powers (Painted In 2012) im April diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 4.560.000,00 (€ 4.656.652,17).
