From ArtAsiaPacific July/August 2011
a small minimalist painting ¡n blue, reached its estimóte of $192,720 without buyer's premium. Cai Guo-Qiang's Traces ofAncient Explosions (1985), another unassuming yet elegant abstract work, was picked up for $622,009, while the unusual painting by Mao Xuhui, Daily Epic, Wee/cend(1994), featuring iconography that would soon become the artist's signature motifs was picked up by a ^ mainland Chínese buyer for $265,838. But not all Political Pop and Cynical Realism reached new stratospheres. Wang Guangyi's Mao Zedong No. 2 of Red Box (1989), failed to meet many observers' expectations of a $1 million price point, set in light of the $2.46 million fetched by a similar painting at the recent Ullens sale at Sotheby's. Experts remarked that at $931,723, the Mao portrait at Christie's was a bargain, but perhaps the conservative mood in China discouraged mainland buyers from taking the risk of bringing it "back home." Out of the 45 lots, ^ only two toothy smiling canvases by painter Yue Minjun remained unsold, with the entire sale bringing Christie's $62.2 million. Their sales the next day of contemporary Asian and Southeast Asian Modern & Contemporary raked in another $20.5 million and $6.3 million, respectively.
