Banksy’s Girl With Balloon painting at Sotheby's auction (Photo Credit: Sothebys.com)

The sale of a Banksy painting for $1.4 million, the highest-ever paid for the British street artist’s solo work, was the perfect finale for Sotheby’s successful “Frieze Week” evening contemporary art auction on October 5, 2018. But before the auctioneers had time to celebrate, an alarm sounded and then, to everyone’s dismay, the artwork began to self-shred while sliding down the frame.

    Why would he want to shred his painting if he would get money?

      Lol! There is a much newer article similar to this!😂 I like how Bansky made a shredder into the same painting, but what is more hilarious is that the painting costs more now that is partially shredded!

                Wait! Banksy secretly installed a hidden shredder into the painting.

                  What made the painting fall of the frame right before the auctioneers started celebrating? Which is rather strange
