Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan has once again blown up the art world! His famous installation "The Comedian" - a banana attached to a wall with duct tape - was sold for $6.2 million! 😲 And, of course, to none other than the founder of the TRON blockchain platform, Justin Sun.
💬 "This isn't just a banana - it's a cultural phenomenon!" Sun said in his post. And he promised to eat the banana in the coming days, turning this act into a new part of the "artistic experience". 🍌🔥
What did the purchase for such a sum include? In addition to the banana (which will eventually have to be replaced), the new owner received a certificate of authenticity and instructions on how to replace the banana. After all, as Cattelan himself says, the main thing in art is the idea.
🤔 How do you like the idea of spending millions on a banana? Art, meme or provocation? Write in the comments who of you is ready to participate in the creation of a "new cultural phenomenon"!
