33.6 million for this
Overweight nude sets art world record - CNN.com
I admit the painting is an exceptional piece, I just can't imaging hanging it where I'd have to look at it everyday. The woman who posed for it has balls though, I'll give her that. "There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed." ~E.H.

I like how she's cupping one breast. It must have been some dream she was having.

I probably wouldn't want to hang that on my wall either. And I can't imagine paying that much for a piece of art. Even if I had billions to spend.

Some pieces of art are overrated. Would do you think, Angels (since you're artistic/talented yourself and therefore more likely to have a better recognition for an art work)?

Yea, not so much. I probably would never pay that much for a piece of art, but if I had the funds, I would spend a few hundred thousand on quality art pieces.

Sorry but the person who paid 33.6 million dollars for this painting is insane. Why would anyone pay even 100,000 for a painting like that puzzles me. It's a nice painting, but not worth more then a couple grand in my opinion.

IMO it's not just the artist's ability that captured the high price, it's the rarity of the subject. Shock art has a way of both repulsing and intriguing people, and you have to admit, there is a certain quailty to it that makes you want to do more than take a quick glance.

It's an amazing piece. While I am repulsed, I find my eyes drawn back to it. Though I would never buy it and hang it up in my house.

Anyways I'm not feeling it. Maybe it does take skill to do that but first off I would never pay that much for anything, and secondly I just don't think it's very good. That's just my opinion though. 90 Firebird (S) | 87 N/A FC3S (S) | 88 N/A FC3S (S) | 87 TII FC3S (S) | 86 Cressida (DD) | 90 240SX Hatch (?) | 97 Ranger (S) PS3 ID - Sephy71 |
