It's kind of like how did certain "singers" actually ever got a record deal. Like the singer of the song Dance Monkey. I'm baffled. But hey, they're getting rich and I'm not. I mean, $120k?!!!!  |
It´s not about the banana.. it´s about the tape. Maurizio Catelan hangs things from ceillings and tapes things to walls. In one of his shows he duct tape the art dealer to the gallery wall. It´s brutal and crude but that´s how things are on the deep level of money exchange for goods.. and people.
