Banana taped to a wall sells for $6.2 million in New York

New York: A fresh banana taped to a wall -- a provocative work of conceptual art by Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan -- was bought for $6.2 million on Wednesday by a cryptocurrency entrepreneur at a New York auction, Sotheby's announced in a statement. The debut of the edible creation entitled Comedian at the Art Basel show in Miami Beach in 2019 sparked controversy and raised questions about whether it should be considered art -- Cattelan's stated aim. Chinese-born crypto founder Justin Sun on Wednesday forked over more than six million for the fruit and its single strip of silver duct tape, which went on sale for 120,000 dollars five years ago. This is not just an artwork. It represents a cultural phenomenon that bridges the worlds of art, memes, and the cryptocurrency community, Sun was quoted as saying in the Sotheby's statement. I believe this piece will inspire more thought and discussion in the future and will become a part of history. The sale featured seven potential buyers and smashed expectations, with the auction house issuing a guide price of $1-1.5 million before the bidding. Given the shelf life of a banana, Sun is essentially buying a certificate of authenticity that the work was created by Cattelan as well as instructions about how to replace the fruit when it goes bad. The installation auctioned on Wednesday was the third iteration -- with the first one eaten by performance artist David Datuna, who said he felt hungry while inspecting it at the Miami show. Sun, who founded cryptomoney exchange Tron, said that he intended to eat his investment too. In the coming days, I will personally eat the banana as part of this unique artistic experience, honoring its place in both art history and popular culture, he said. 'Gone mad' As well as his banana work, Cattelan is also known for producing an 18-carat, fully functioning gold toilet called America that was offered to Donald Trump during his first term in the White House. His work is often humourous and deliberately provocative, with a 1999 sculpture of the pope stuck by a meteor titled The Ninth Hour. He has explained the banana work as a critical commentary on the art market, which he has criticized in the past for being speculative and failing to help artists. The asking price of $120,000 for Comedian in 2019 was seen at the time as evidence that the market was ananas and the art world had gone mad, as The New York Post said in a front-page article. The banana sold on Wednesday was bought for 35 cents from a Bangladeshi fruit seller on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, according to The New York Times. Sun has hit headlines in the past as an art collector and as a major player in the murky cryptocurrency world. He was charged last year by the US Securities and Exchange Commission for alleged market manipulation and unregistered sales of crypto assets, which he promoted with celebrity endorsements, including from Lindsay Lohan. In 2021, he bought Alberto Giacometti's Le Nez for $78.4 million, which was hailed by Sotheby's at the time as signaling an influx of younger, tech-savvy collectors. Global art markets have been dropping in value in recent years due to higher interest rates, as well as concern about geopolitical instability, experts say. Empire of Light (L'Empire des lumieres), a painting by Rene Magritte, shattered an auction record for the surrealist artist on Tuesday, however, selling for more than $121 million at Christie's in New York.

Cash, jewellery worth Rs 1.5 cr looted during attack on Manipur MLA's residence: Police

Imphal: The mother of JD(U) MLA Kh Joykishan Singh in Manipur has lodged a complaint, alleging that Rs 18 lakh in cash and jewellery items worth Rs 1.5 crore were looted by a mob that vandalised the legislator's residence on November 16, police said on Thursday Several items kept at the MLA's residence in West Imphal's Thangmeiband area for internally displaced people were also destroyed during the attack, a senior officer said. The mother of Thangmeiband constituency legislator Kh Joykishan Singh filed a complaint with the Imphal Police Station that Rs 18 lakh in cash and several valuable items worth Rs 1.5 crore were looted and destroyed during a mob attack. An FIR has been registered, the police officer told PTI. The mob vandalised the residence of the legislator for about two hours on the November 16 evening, he said. Notably, the MLA was in Delhi due to medical treatment for one of his family members when the mob attacked his residence last week. An internally displaced person, staying in a relief camp set up at Tombisana Higher Secondary School in Thangmeiband, a few meters away from the residence of Joykishan, said, Vegetables like potatoes and onions, and other items such as winter clothes were kept for people like us. All these materials were looted. We urged the mob not to vandalise the residence of the MLA as several items meant for distribution among displaced people were kept there, Sanayai, a volunteer who manages the relief camp under the supervision of Joykishan, said. Lockers, electronics goods and furniture were vandalised, she claimed, adding that the mob attempted to take away three air conditioners but failed. Seven gas cylinders were also taken away by the mob, she claimed. Documents of internally displaced people were also destroyed during the attack, Sanayai said. The mob also pushed internally displaced people and one of the volunteers there was injured after being beaten up, she claimed. Houses of several legislators in Manipur were vandalised as violence escalated last week after three women and three children belonging to the Meitei community had gone missing from a relief camp in Jiribam district following a gunfight between security forces and suspected Kuki-Zo militants that resulted in the deaths of 10 insurgents on November 11. Bodies of those six were later found over the past few days. More than 220 people have been killed and thousands rendered homeless in ethnic violence between Imphal Valley-based Meiteis and adjoining hills-based Kuki-Zo groups since May last year.

Delhi's AQI improves but remains very poor

New Delhi: After a week of severe pollution levels in Delhi, the city's air quality improved slightly but still remained very poor, as it recorded the season's lowest temperature on Thursday morning.Delhi recorded a minimum temperature of 10.2 degree Celsius, 2.1 notch below the season's average, the India Meteorological Department said. At 9 am, the national capital recorded an AQI of 376, according to the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB). The weather department has predicted shallow fog during the day. On Sunday, Delhi's air quality was recorded in the severe category, prompting authorities to impose the GRAP-IV measures. On Monday and Tuesday, it worsened further, reaching the severe plus category, with the AQI exceeding 450. By Wednesday, the AQI showed slight improvement but remained in the severe category. An AQI between zero and 50 is considered good, 51 and 100 satisfactory, 101 and 200 moderate, 201 and 300 poor, 301 and 400 very poor, and 401 and 500 severe.

US govt calls for breakup of Google and Chrome

Washington: The US government late Wednesday asked a judge to order the dismantling of Google by selling its widely used Chrome browser in a major antitrust crackdown on the internet giant. In a court filing, the US Department of Justice urged a shake-up of Google's business that includes banning deals for Google to be the default search engine on smartphones and preventing it from exploiting its Android mobile operating system. Antitrust officials said in the filing that Google should also be made to sell Android if proposed remedies don't prevent the tech company from using its control of the mobile operating system to its advantage. Calling for the breakup of Google marks a profound change by the US government's regulators, which have largely left tech giants alone since failing to break up Microsoft two decades ago. Google is expected to make its recommendations in a filing next month and both sides will make their case at a hearing in April before US District Court Judge Amit Mehta. Regardless of Judge Mehta's eventual decision, Google is expected to appeal the ruling, prolonging the process for years and potentially leaving the final say to the US Supreme Court. The case could also be upended by the arrival of President-elect Donald Trump to the White House in January. His administration will likely replace the current team in charge of the DOJ's antitrust division. The newcomers could choose to carry on with the case, ask for a settlement with Google, or abandon the case altogether. Trump has blown hot and cold in how to handle Google and the dominance of big tech companies. He has accused the search engine of bias against conservative content, but has also signaled that a forced break up of the company would be too large a demand by the US government. Too extreme? Determining how to address Google's wrongs is the next stage of the landmark antitrust trial that saw the company in August ruled a monopoly by Judge Mehta. Google has dismissed the idea of a breakup as adical. Adam Kovacevich, chief executive of industry trade group Chamber of Progress, said the government's demands were fantastical and defied legal standards, instead calling for narrowly tailored remedies. The trial, which concluded last year, scrutinized Google's confidential agreements with smartphone manufacturers, including Apple. These deals involve substantial payments to secure Google's search engine as the default option on browsers, iPhones and other devices. The judge determined that this arrangement provided Google with unparalleled access to user data, enabling it to develop its search engine into a globally dominant platform. From this position, Google expanded its tech and data-gathering empire to include the Chrome browser, Maps and the Android smartphone operating system. According to the judgment, Google controlled 90 percent of the US online search market in 2020, with an even higher share, 95 percent, on mobile devices. The US government currently has five cases pending against big tech over antitrust concerns after the Biden administration adopted a tough stance on reining in the dominance of the companies. If carried through by the Trump administration, the cases against Amazon, Meta, and Apple, as well as two against Google, could take years to litigate.

Recruitment via outsourcing under BJP govt an economic conspiracy against 'PDA': Akhilesh

LUCKNOW: Samajwadi Party (SP) president Akhilesh Yadav on Thursday said providing jobs was not on the BJP government's agenda, and added that recruitment to government posts via outsourcing was an economic conspiracy against marginalised people. Yadav shared on social media platform X a newspaper clipping and an advertisement that said the posts of Tehsildar, Naib Tehsildar, Revenue Inspector and Lekhpal were being filled through outsourcing. This was a move to snatch the constitutional right of job reservation, he said in a post on X. It would be better if the BJP outsources the entire 'government' so that all its commissions come from one place. By doing this, the BJP will not have to take the great trouble of giving a small number of jobs while ending reservations under its pretext, he posted in Hindi.
