"A South Korean art student who ate a banana that formed part of a renowned installation by the Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan said he did so because he was “hungry”.
Noh Huyn-soo was filmed brazenly removing the banana, which was duct-taped on to a wall at the Leeum Museum of Art in Seoul, unpeeling it and eating it in front of stunned onlookers before reattaching the banana skin to the wall using the same tape and walking off with a satisfied grin.
The incident was recorded by a friend of Noh, a student at Seoul National University, and lasted for over a minute.
When the museum asked Noh why he ate the banana, he replied that he was hungry after skipping breakfast, according to the Korea Herald. He later told the broadcaster KBS that he thought “damaging a work of modern art could also be [interpreted as] artwork” and that he came up with the idea to reattach the peel as “a joke”."
