“Value is subjective.”

Justin Sun, who recently paid $6.2 million for Maurizio Cattelan’s Comedian (2019), has just intervened in the work by recontextualizing it, altering its meaning and sparking a dialogue around its value and significance in an increasingly overrated contemporary art market.

Wow, Justin Sun sure knows how to shake things up in the art world! Paying $6.2 million for a banana duct-taped to a wall is definitely one way to make a statement about the subjective nature of value. Who knew contemporary art could be so...appeeling?
