Comedian (artwork)
Some people did not think it should really be called art. The Guardian said it was a "questionably genius work". They said the price of the art reminded them of a joke in the sitcom Arrested Development about not knowing how much a banana costs. Artnet News said it was one of the worst works of art for the week. They thought that the price was foolish. USA Today made jokes about the art's price. Newsweek called it "humorous" and "minimalist" (art that uses simple ideas). CBS News said it was "the most talked-about" work of art at the gallery. Comedian was put on the cover of The New York Post for a day.
