  • Michaelangelo's La Pieta is sculpture.  Giacometti's cat is a high school art class project that might warrant a grade of C.

  • the giacometti cat did not eat something for loooongtime .... mortacci sua ... e de sto gattaccio ...

  • Since the art industry has become a joke with the sale of this ridiculous sculpture for $104 million; I am now asking $150 million for my "Audentes fortuna iuvat" oil painting to beat out this and Pollock's #5 for the most expensive art ever sold.

    I mean heh, why shouldn't I get a cut of this financial insanity?

  • Not their best work by a long shot.

    Safe drawingroom modernism.

    Of great value by the artists names alone in my view.
