Justin Sun, a well-known entrepreneur and founder of a cryptocurrency platform, fulfilled his loud promise. He ate the famous banana – an art object by Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan, sold for an impressive 6,24 million USD, URA.RU reports on its Telegram channel.
“It's much tastier than other bananas. Really, it's not bad”, - Sun said after biting into the fruit during a special press conference in Hong Kong, RIA Novosti reports.
The installation, titled “Comedian”, was initially estimated to sell for between 1 million and 1,5 million USD. However, the final price of the lot exceeded all expectations, becoming a shining example of the absurdity of contemporary art and the art market.
