Artist snacks on $US120,000 banana taped to wall in Art Basel gallery

An artist has caused a ruckus in the art world after he grabbed a prized banana that had been taped to a wall and sold for $US120,000 and ate it in what he declared as his own performance art.
The artwork of a real banana, by Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan, was on show at the prestigious Art Basel exhibition in Miami when fellow artist David Datuna walked up to it, pulled it from the wall and casually ate it in front of a crowd of onlookers.
Security escorted Mr Datuna from the gallery soon afterwards, however, Artnet reported that no charges would be brought against him.
In a video of what Mr Datuna has called his own performance art, he commented that the banana tasted good but said there was "too much tape" for his liking.

The artwork, titled Comedian — of which there were three versions — had earlier sold for $US120,000 ($175,534).
The artwork has not been permanently damaged, however, with another banana taking its place.
On Instagram, Mr Datuna declared his own artwork the "Hungry Artist", saying: "I love Maurizio Cattelan artwork and I really love this installation. It's very delicious".
The stunt has been praised on social media as a hilarious prank.
One user said: "Not all heroes wear capes", while another wrote on Mr Datuna's Instagram post that: "You eating that banana might be the best thing I've seen all year."
Earlier during the exhibition, the artwork was so popular with crowds wanting to take selfies with the now infamous banana that staff were forced to remove it from view, Artnet reported.
Emmanuel Perrotin, whose gallery represented Mr Cattelan at the Art Basel, posted on Instagram that "the installation caused several uncontrollable crowd movements and the placement of the work on our booth compromised the safety of the artwork around us, including that of our neighbours".
"When Maurizio first told me about his idea, I never once anticipated that it could become what it is today. 'Comedian,' with its simple composition, ultimately offered a complex reflection of ourselves," he wrote.
Perrotin Gallery described New York-based Mr Cattelan as "one of the most popular and controversial artists on the contemporary art scene".
One of his previous works involved replacing a toilet at the Guggenheim gallery with a version cast in 18-karat gold, which was fully functional and available for use by the public.

In a statement to The Art Newspaper, the gallery said that the now-consumed artwork "offers insight [into] how we assign worth and what kind of objects we value".
