Man Proves He’s a ‘Hungry Artist’ by Eating $120,000 Banana

What may be a piece of art work to one, may be a piece of food to another. Such was the case at an art gallery in Miami, Florida last week, where Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan displayed his duct-taped banana art piece. Yes, the art piece was nothing more than a banana duct-taped to the wall…and it went viral. That was until an art patron approached the exhibit, but instead of taking photos as other people were doing, the man peels the banana off the wall…and literally ate the real-life 120-thousand dollar banana that was stuck to the wall…. dubbing himself a – quote – “hungry artist.” He later captioned an instagram post, saying “it’s very delicious”. Officials at the art gallery were not pleased. They say the man was asked to leave but was not arrested…and not to worry, the banana was replaced after the incident.
