Anonymous Coward User ID: 77999704 Canada 12/08/2019 10:03 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Who'd pay 120k for a banana. Bit of monkey business going on. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78105856 Peel back the layers, bet you there's money laundering going on. You know - 'yeah, I got that 120k for a legit artwork, nothing to do with da mello yello' The film "Mickey Blue Eyes" (1999) is a romantic comedy, about an art auctioneer who falls in love with a Mafia princess. It lays out how art is a vehicle for money laundering. Easy to hide ill gotten gains when you get a monkey to throw paint at a canvas and attach whatever price you want to the result. |

The "real" rich get away with the money laundering. |

Is that still true? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78233188 Tried that when I was a teenager in the early 80's, didn't do a damn thing :) Me too. Same. You were suppose to dry them out and smoke them, but that didn't do anything either. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 72103604 United States 12/08/2019 11:27 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Somebody posted the other day about this travesty masquerading as “art.” Looks like this brave wag has shown the world that the emperor is naked after all. Quoting: Ordovician On Friday, we reported on the latest bizarre milestone in the "art" world, when a banana duct-taped to a wall sold for $120,000 at that excess-liquidity conclave of ultra rich and other wannabe poseurs known Art Basel Miami Beach. Worse, a second banana duct-taped to a wall also sold for $120,000. Yet even worse than that, a third banana duct-taped to a wall is expected to sell for $150,000 and so on. Then on Saturday, at around 1:45pm, the art world was shocked when a random man, allegedly a performance artist, ate said duct-taped banana that sold earlier this week for $120,000.
