So if I duct taped a banana to a wall, and call it art, I could get $120,000 for it? People nowadays have rubbish for taste.

Take it as a compliment that the art was appealing.

Worth? Unless someone paid $120k for it, it’s just a banana. Replace it for a buck.

Sure. See something that doesn’t belong to you and you want it, then just take it.

Geez.

Crap art. Just buy another banana and tape it to the wall. The art piece is worth $1.

It ain’t art.

Because if I could do the same thing, it ain’t art.

The entire article sounds like the Babylon Bee. At the end of the article:

“The Italian creator of the [banana] artwork also was behind the gold toilet offered to the White House on loan by New York City’s prestigious Guggenheim Museum.

The museum rejected a request to display Van Gogh’s 1888 “Landscape With Snow” work in the residence and proposed the toilet instead.

I bet he was singing:

Yes, we have no bananas, we have no bananas today.

Day-o, day-o
Daylight come and we want go home
Day, me say day, me say day, me say day, me say day, me say day
Daylight come and we want go home
Work all night on a drink of rum
(Daylight come and we want go home)
Stack banana ‘til the morning come
(Daylight come and we want go home)
Come Mister tally man, tally me banana
(Daylight come and we want go home)
Come Mister tally man, tally me banana
(Daylight come and we want go home)
Lift six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch
(Daylight come and we want go home)
Six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch
(Daylight come and we want go home)
Day, is a day-o
(Daylight come and we want go home)
Day, is a day, is a day, is a day
(Daylight come and we want go home)
A beautiful bunch of ripe banana
(Daylight come and we want go home)
Hide the deadly black tarantula
(Daylight come and we want go home)
Lift six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch
(Daylight come and we want go home)
Six foot, seven foot, eight foot bunch
(Daylight come and we want go home)
Day, is a day-o
(Daylight come and we want go home)
Day, is a day, is a day, is a day, is a day, is a day-o
(Daylight come and we want go home)
Come Mister tally man, tally me banana
(Daylight come and we want go home)
Come Mister tally man, tally me banana
(Daylight come and we want go home)
Day-o, day-o
(Daylight come and we want go home)
Day, me say day, me say day, me say day, me say day, me say day
(Daylight come and we want go home)

I’m glad he enjoyed it. It wasn’t art. It wasn’t worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, any more than monkeys splattering paint on canvas can be called the production of art.
