At Sotheby's auction, Maurizio Cattelan's infamous artwork "Comedian," a banana duct-taped to a wall, sold for a staggering $6.2 million. This piece first gained notoriety at Art Basel Miami Beach in 2019, sparking debates about art and its value. At the time, another artist, David Datuna, even ate the banana, only for it to be replaced. Despite its simplicity, "Comedian" attracted massive attention and controversy.
