This artwork by Bruce Conner achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in November 2018. In the Post-War and Contemporary Art Morning Session auction, the work UNTITLED: JUNE 4, 1965, 83 FRANCIS ST., BROOKLINE, MA sold for USD 35,000.00 (€ 30,910.54) - well above the upper estimate of USD 20,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Bruce Conner achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Cannabis Collage in November 2016 with an auction result of USD 631,500.00 (€ 596,993.76).
