The work Untitled (Fat Man & Little Boy) by Gary Hill was sold in the Visionary: The Paul G. Allen Collection Part II auction at Christies in New York in November last year. It achieved a price of USD 40,320.00 (€ 39,058.41), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 34%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Gary Hill - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Crossbow, which sold at auction in November 2007 for USD 169,000.00 (€ 115,059.91).
