Did you ever taught someone would create something with a banana tape to a wall and called it a piece of art. The piece actually sold for 62 million dollars started a lot of controversy. The meaning of this new kind of art work is a bridge between world art, memes and crypto currency community. I don’t understand how a banana which is taped to the wall suppose to represent the crypto currency community. I believe this is a statement art can be anything.

Maurizio Cattelan

This sculpture was created by Maurizio Cattelan, he is known as a prankster of the art world.

I created this with Adobe Photoshop and I tried to submit it to a art gallery. My artwork got rejected since it was computer generated. When I first learned about the banana duct tape to the wall which sold for 62 billion dollars. I know I wasn’t no Van Gogh but I thought my artwork was better than Banana duct taped to the wall.
