(FoxNews) – An odd piece of artwork that consists of a banana duct-taped to
a wall has sold for $120,000 at a Miami art fair. The piece, titled "The
Comedian," was created by Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan.
Two of the three editions of the banana artwork sold for $120,000 at the Art
Basel Miami festival and a third is expected to fetch $150,000.
Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan is known for his satirical
sculptures.
Cool here and I have to tell you that I find absolutely nothing to go bananas over about this piece of artwork and I certainly wouldn’t peel off $120,000 skins for it! For crying out loud I can get a roll of duct tape at the Dollar Tree (and it even comes in yellow now!) and a bunch of bananas for a couple of bucks and…..well you get my idea!!!
