Maurizio Cattelan's Comedian, the infamous banana duct-taped to a wall, has been sold at Sotheby’s New York for a staggering $6.2 million to Chinese crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun. Known for sparking global debates about art and absurdity, the piece has toured major cities and gained viral fame.

Sun plans to eat the banana as part of a unique performance, but the purchase only includes instructions to replace the fruit when it rots. The controversial artwork has a history of being eaten by critics and has sparked discussions on the commercialization of art.
