BASEL, Switzerland (Reuters) -- Perhaps the oddest piece of work at Art Basel is a bar of soap, displayed on a square of black velvet, purportedly made from Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi's fat, removed during liposuction.
Gianni Monti's work called 'Clean Hands' -- the title is a play on the name of an anti-Mafia group -- sold in less than an hour for 15,000 euros ($18,000) to a private Swiss collector, according to Monti's Galerie Nicola von Senger of Zurich.
In LA, on the internet, and via USPS...
Yeah, right.
That reminds me, I need to send Aurelia Legend.
Tyler Durdin would be proud.
Bwah!
Now I want to watch Fight Club. But Property Ladder is oddly fascinating, especially since the women flipping this little rathole of a house want to use the profits to buy new boobs.
Heh. I hope this struggle over who is the nicest continues for a while. It's working out well for me.
Just keep the tamarind balls coming, that's all I'm saying.
snerk
I promise to make another run before I leave town at the end of the week.
Completely unrelated... is there any way to tell who has read your lj? Please someone tell me no.
Not that I know of.
I did, but you knew that.
No.
Thank you! That google meme lead me to my ex's LJ and I didn't want to go there if I'd leave tracks.
Strangely enough, the same google search also lead me to John Tynes' Pagan Publishing page.
