Reminds me of the Damien Hirst piece that I love and hate equally. A platinum cast of an 18th-century human skull encrusted with diamonds that had an asking price of £50 million, which was bought by a consortium of people that include... Damien Hirst. He's always been great at titling his work - the fact that it's called For The Love of God, a phrase that I use regularly when I'm exasperated by something, is the icing on the cake. Just unbelievable self-referential, self-dealing chutzpah.
