About the work+

Morons stages a crowded auction room in which the lot under the hammer is a framed canvas bearing the words “I Can't Believe You Morons Actually Buy This Shit.” Inspired by the record-breaking 1987 sale of Van Gogh's Sunflowers, it is a self-aware satire of the art market that is itself bought and sold within that market. Debuted at Barely Legal in 2006; after the show the Los Angeles plates were ordered destroyed.
