Sotheby’s Hong Kong Contemporary Evening Sale = HKD 568.9m ($73m) Sotheby’s Hong Kong Evening sale of Contemporary art was more notable for the several artist’s records set for Shara Hughes, Nicolas Party, Louis Fratimo, Jadé Fadojutimi and Joel Mesler than for the top lots in the auction. Jean-Michel Basquiat’s Untitled (Red Warrior) struggled to reach the low estimate and Adrian Ghenie’s guaranteed The Death of Charles Darwin failed to elicit bidding. George Condo’s Whistler’s Father too had an uphill battle.
