What am I looking at?
Have you ever looked at an artwork and just shook your head? I don't blame you. Art can be confusing if you are new to "reading" art. It requires some effort and detective skills on the viewer's part.
Mauricio Cattelan's 2019 "Comedian" is such a piece. Multiple versions of this piece sold for around $120,000 to $150,000 a pop. A banana and duct tape. Can this be art? Explore more Spotlighting Art and The Art World on Comedian and other artworks.
