đ°đœ Sothebyâs just sold a fully functional 18-karat solid-gold toilet for $12.1M â and the markets arenât the only thing flushing liquidity.
Maurizio Cattelanâs piece âAmericaâ reminds us how capital behaves at the extremes:
223 lbs of pure gold
A direct satire on wealth excess
Once showcased at the Guggenheim
A twin piece was stolen in the UK and never found
In markets and in art, one rule stays true:
When too much money chases too little value⊠absurd prices follow.
