Wahaha




This vs. this vs. that:
Damien Hirst's The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living (1991) - tiger shark suspended in formaldehyde;
Paul Chan's Beanie Babies in the Mind of the Dead (1999) - "Crunch" the Beanie baby shark floating in olive oil;
Shark caught by Eddie Saunders in 1989 and displayed in his electrical shop in Shoreditch; displayed as anti-art last year in the window of Stuckism International, London.


Great in-joke for art historian types.
