About this artwork
We can clearly see that the world has gone bananas. Not only the artworld but the political world as well. Well Bananas have been in fashion not only for its healthy and tasty content but since Bananas were introduced to the western world , arriving from Africa in the beginning of the last century. Since then it has played important parts in our culture. We had the American French dancer Josephine Baker dancing naked only covered in bananas . That…
made a scandal. And of-course Pop artist Andy Warhol who put a banana on his Vinyl cover for the Velvet underground Rock band. And recently Maurizio Cattelan who at an art fair 2013 put a normal banana with duct tape on the wall. It was sold for over 100 thousand dollars, now this year 2024 the banana was again sold and this time making a record price of 6,2 million Dollars. So don't tell me that the world has not gone bananas. So yes we are still just intelligent Monkeys after all.
