Maurizio Cattelan’s viral artwork Comedian – a banana duct-taped to a wall – has fetched a whopping $6.2m at auction. Its new owner, crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun, will receive: a banana, a roll of duct tape, and instructions on how to combine them, including, crucially, “how to replace the banana”. More evidence that large sums of money are in the hands of the wrong people, if you needed it.
@kibcol1049 I’m honestly not mad at Maurizio Cattelan for being 6.2 million dollars richer (minus the auctioneer’s fee) #NotAllLargeSumsOfMoney
