На аукционе была продана инсталляция с бананом, приклеенным скотчем.

This was reported by the auction house Sotheby's.

Previously, this installation was listed for sale at a price of $1 million. Chinese crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun offered six times that amount and became the owner of this artwork.

The installation, titled "Comedian," was created by Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan. In 2019, he produced several copies, one of which was displayed at a museum in Miami. Interestingly, one of them was eaten by another artist during the exhibition.

At that time, two pieces were purchased by private collectors for $120,000, while a third was acquired for a larger (but undisclosed) amount and later gifted to the Guggenheim Museum in New York.

In October, the third banana was also put up for sale. It was estimated to be worth between $1 million and $1.5 million.
