Auction result well in line with expectations
In December last year Phillips in Hong Kong held the auction 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale in association with Yongle, which included the work INFINITY-NETS (GMBKA) by Yayoi Kusama. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of HKD 12,000,000.00 – 18,000,000.00, the actual price achieved of HKD 12,592,000.00 (€ 1,508,968.41) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. 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).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember letzten Jahres führte Phillips in Hong Kong die Auktion 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale in association with Yongle durch, in der auch die Arbeit INFINITY-NETS (GMBKA) von Yayoi Kusama zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von HKD 12.000.000,00 – 18.000.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von HKD 12.592.000,00 (€ 1.508.968,41) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. 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).
