Upper estimate price exceeded by 31 %.
The work Pumpkin TWO by Yayoi Kusama was sold in the Contemporary Art Day Sale auction at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2021. It achieved a price of HKD 3,276,000.00 (€ 364,409.63), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 31%. 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 um 31 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Pumpkin TWO von Yayoi Kusama wurde im Oktober 2021 in der Auktion Contemporary Art Day Sale bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von HKD 3.276.000,00 (€ 364.409,63) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 31%. 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).
