Simon de Pury: solidarity with occupy wallstreet

well not really but could have been. simon de pury stand next to maurizio cattelan’s cop piece titled frank and jaime (2002). the amazing show is up for view at the guggenheim museum. i saw it last weekend but prepare to stand in line. it’s a nice piece not just as art but as just a cool object-of-desire. it’s almost like a kid robot mega munny. only difference is that the piece made in edition of 3 goes for an estimated $1 – 1.5 million dollars. by dd
