The people at this Sotheby’s art auction were shocked to see a million-dollar painting being shredded right after it was auctioned off. World-famous street artist Banksy has either created his most famous painting or pulled off the greatest joke ever on the buyer and the art world. I would imagine Sotheby’s had detected the shredder and knew this would occur so my guess is that Banksy did it as a publicity stunt. Regardless, I’m willing to bet the shredded painting is now worth several million dollars as it truly is an original work of art.
