Maurizio Cattelan’s<\/font><\/span> sculpture \u201cComedian\u201d (2019) presented at the art fair \u201cArt Basel Miami Beach\u201d. A series of events surrounding this piece of real bananas affixed to the wall with scotch tape.<\/span><\/font><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/p>\n

The curtain closed on December 8 America’s largest art fair “Art Basel Miami Beach (ABMB)” . The most talked about at this year’s fair was the comedian (2019), which appeared in the Perotin booth, with Maurizio Cattelan sticking a real banana to the wall with gray scotch tape.<\/span>

<\/span><\/font><\/p>\n

Cattelan has been thinking about the idea for about a year and took a banana to decorate the hotel room with each trip. At first, he was thinking about sculptures in the shape of bananas, but after making several models using resin and bronze, he finally turned the real bananas into works.<\/span><\/font><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/font><\/p>\n

On the first day of the fair, two editions of the work were purchased by individual collectors at a price of $ 120,000. The third edition was booked by the museum for $ 150,000 (about 16 million yen).<\/span><\/font><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

New York Times According to reports, the bananas exhibited at ABMB were bought by <\/span>P\u00e9rotin<\/span> at a grocery store in Miami. When the work is purchased, a certificate from the <\/span>Cattelan<\/span> and an installation manual are attached.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/font><\/div>\n
The founder of the gallery, Emmanuel P\u00e9rotin, said that \u201cpurchase\u201d is just part of the work, \u201cif the certificate becomes known, this work is only a material expression. The fact that someone bought it makes the work. “<\/span><\/font><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/font><\/div>\n
Such a banana encountered an incident the day before the fair closed. New York-based artist David Datuna stripped the banana from the wall and ate it. After the incident, Datuna named the act \u201cHungry Artist\u201d and released a series of videos on Instagram. He also commented on these posts: \u201cI love the work of Maurizio Cattelan and its installation.<\/span><\/font><\/div>\n
