I wouldn't even have that in my house as a doorstop.

Looks more like Hillary's chest (I presume.)

It looks like a fancy doorknob. Guess dear ol' PT was right.

,,, looks great but I think the actual art lies in making prospective buyers believe it's "worth" what they're saying it is. Presently, where I am there's a Henry Moore exhibition running thru to next month. That's worth seeing, if sculpture's your thing.

It may be the world's most expensive recorded sculpture sale, but off-hand I can think of about 20 things in the Louvre that would go for a lot more.

I am an artist & a art lover & the article really had me looking forward to seeing the sculpture. But, in the words of Rozanne Rozanadana, .......... "never mind".

A WORLD record auction price for a sculpture has been set with the sale of an 11-inch-tall bronze head for £12.3 million.

What a dumbass to buy a copy. The buyer might as well have had 50 duplicates made for $100,000.

Perfect gift for someone who has everything. Unlikely to cause a negligence lawsuit, and of little use in gathering DNA evidence.

In Nevada City they built a new jail named after somebody named Wayne and paid $30,000 to have art put out front. the jail was known to the staff as Wayne's World. The art was supposed to look like mountains sticking out of the clouds but ended up looking like a bunch of phalluses sticking out of the sand. It will forever be known as Wayne's Weenie World. Good name for a jail.

A fierce bidding battle broke out in Christie's New York saleroom when Constantin Brancusi's Danaide went under the hammer.

Like most modern "art", this one does indeed deserve to go "under the hammer."

I think the Warner Brother's version, Marvin the Martian, is much cuter.

[Orual]

Take this Brancusi and place it in this Duchamp and leave them on the curb for the trash collector.
