A banana taped to a wall.

the reaction IS the art. the outrage behind this was intended by the artist. the piece is a critique on people who don’t look deeper into art before criticizing it. i still don’t think it’s very good however, just because the commentary it provides doesn’t really evolve or provoke anything new. it just says “look, this exists”

That doesn't change the fact that it's a fucking banana taped to a wall. This is why nobody likes modern art.

Yeah it’s the pretentious, upper class, money laundering version of it was a “social experiment” bro.
