Moment intruder peels $120,000 BANANA off art gallery wall and eats it - but artist says it's no skin off his nose and simply replaces it
The artwork, titled Comedian, was eaten by performance artist David Datuna at Galerie Perrotin in Miami during the Art Basel show
As Datuna peeled the banana, he said: 'Art performance... hungry artist'
The artwork created by Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan sold to a French collector before the stunt for an eye watering $120,000
Museum employee Lucien Terras said Datuna 'did not destroy the artwork' because 'the banana is the idea'
A replacement banana was taped to the wall 15 minutes after the stunt
