The work Inventions portfolio: Twelve Around One: Tensile Integrity Structures Tensegrity by Buckminster Fuller was auctioned at Phillips in New York in November 2009. It achieved a price of USD 5,625.00 (€ 3,751.50), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 61%. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Buckminster Fuller; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Dymaxion Air - Ocean World Map sold at auction in April 2018 with the realized price of USD 5,250.00 (€ 4,348.19).
