Duct-taped banana could fetch $1.5M at Sotheby's fall art sales<br /><br />Sotheby’s preview of their autumn art sales in New York City on Nov. 8, 2024 offers an atypical sight -- a banana duct-taped to a wall. The conceptual piece, titled 'Comedian,' by Maurizio Cattelan, debuted in 2019 at Art Basel in Miami and became a viral sensation. Sotheby’s Lucius Elliott, head of Contemporary and The Now Evening auctions, estimates it will sell for $1 million to $1.5 million when it goes under the hammer on Nov. 20. <br /><br />REUTERS VIDEO<br /><br />Subscribe to The Manila Times Channel - https://tmt.ph/YTSubscribe <br />Visit our website at https://www.manilatimes.net <br /> <br />Follow us: <br />Facebook - https://tmt.ph/facebook <br />Instagram - https://tmt.ph/instagram <br />Twitter - https://tmt.ph/twitter <br />DailyMotion - https://tmt.ph/dailymotion <br /> <br />Subscribe to our Digital Edition - https://tmt.ph/digital <br />Sign up to our newsletters: https://tmt.ph/newsletters<br /> <br />Check out our Podcasts: <br />Spotify - https://tmt.ph/spotify <br />Apple Podcasts - https://tmt.ph/applepodcasts <br />Amazon Music - https://tmt.ph/amazonmusic <br />Deezer: https://tmt.ph/deezer <br />Tune In: https://tmt.ph/tunein<br /> <br />#themanilatimes<br />#worldnews<br />#banana <br />#art
