Jesus Christ Shit Can

This image of Christ is the most expensive painting sold at auction to date. It is a portrait of Christ who in the original is holding a transparent ball in his hand that symbolises the world. In this work he is holding one of the cans of “Artist’s Shit” that Piero Manzoni sold for its price in gold. Art today accepts both Renaissance and conceptual works that fetch very high prices on the market. This work is a reflection on the different ways we have of understanding art, in a world where almost anything goes.
