Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Dancing Pumpkin by Yayoi Kusama was sold in the Modern and Contemporary Art Day Sale auction at POLY in Hong Kong in July last year. Here, the upper estimate of HKD 450,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for HKD 480,000.00 (€ 59,894.14). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Yayoi Kusama achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Pumpkin in April this year with an auction result of HKD 30,000,000.00 (€ 30,635,869.57).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Dancing Pumpkin von Yayoi Kusama wurde im Juli letzten Jahres in der Auktion Modern and Contemporary Art Day Sale bei POLY in Hong Kong versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von HKD 450.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für HKD 480.000,00 (€ 59.894,14) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Yayoi Kusama erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Pumpkin im April diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 30.000.000,00 (€ 30.635.869,57).
