How about this one: Take a fruit and tape it to the wall. Don\u2018t forget to sell it for some 100k Euros, before eating it. Great, innit? Let\u2018s invent money merchandising the big something. Admittedly, I was jaundicedly reading about the big banana recently and thus I have decided that such a precious piece of art cries for epigonism. So, here we are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Out of exaggerated narcissism I deeply believe that my artwork with the little giraffe taped to the kitchen wall is somewhat much more refined, the basic idea being elaborated in a very outstanding (or let\u2018s call it outtaping) way and last but never least, a little giraffe instead of a dull yellow banana is much funnier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, may I start a fund-raiser for this superb installation? I\u2018m afraid not, because the other pieces of art I\u2018m creating\u2014all the humdrum pieces of music and whatsoever else\u2014keep me too busy to act&nbsp;<em>The Great Gatsby<\/em>. Writing about the adventurous little giraffe keeps me occupied as well and I\u2018m not getting paid a penny for that even.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perhaps there is a difference between art that goes bananas and artists that do the same. We might figure out that the former is sometimes to be considered prospering whereas\u2014from an economic point of view\u2014the latter very often are not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In any case I hope you commiserate with the little giraffe being taped to my wall just for to ridicule an overpriced banana that was eaten somewhere in Switzerland. The little giraffe has recoverd well, though, but it is still not in a saleable condition notwithstanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Time and time again art goes bananas.
