The Fall of Modern Art

[Byrd]

What about that banana duct taped to the wall? That some mug paid paid millions for?!!!!

And now (per the article I read) owns the right to duct tape any banana they like to any wall and call it by the title of that piece of art ("Comedian" is the title).  Cattelan has done the piece before... and ate the banana, too.

Oh.  The buyer, who founded the Tron blockchain network, paid in crypto and plans to eat the banana.

No kidding. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2024/11/21/duct-taped-banana-auction-comedian/76477492007/
