A popular piece of street art destroyed by Hong Kong authorities has been remade and is expected to fetch more than HK$1.5 million (US$192,000) at a Sotheby & #039;s auction next week. It comes as experts say the demand for & quot;cutting edge & quot; art is growing across the Asian market with new, younger collectors emerging. The ceramic mosaic of 1970s American cartoon character Hong Kong Phooey -- a mask-wearing dog who is an expert in kung fu -- was created by high-profile French street artist Invader. It first went up on a wall in a quiet street of Hong Kong & #039;s upmarket Happy Valley neighbourhood last January. [ VIEW FULL COVERAGE @Entertainment News Headlines — Yahoo! News ]
