"I think this is the first one in art history when one artist eat concept for another," Datuna told reporters in New York."People ask me, 'You eat banana?' Physically it was banana but banana is just a tool, usually I eat the concept of that you know?" Datuna insisted this wasn't a PR stunt, but a serious piece of art when he peeled and consumed the banana on Saturday afternoon at Art Basel in Miami Beach
"I decided in the morning" Saturday to eat the banana art, Datuna said,"but I was not too hungry so I spent two hours in the Basel.""I respect because he makes fun of everything, this is why I respect him," Datuna said."He's smart, he's genius." A spokeswoman for Cattelan said Monday the artist is not seeking any criminal or civil action against Datuna.The Georgian-born artist Datuna said he has other performance art projects in the works, coinciding with Super Bowl LIV in early 2020 and then with the next World Cup, in Qatar in 2022.

It ain’t Erased de Kooning Datuna, but well played.
Really?
I just wonder what kind of person is capable to pay 120,000 for one banana instead of buy food for 6000 people in one day. 🤔
Stupid!
He's a real comidiot isn't he?
This feels more and more like planned awfulness. He's a performance artist.
