Edvard Munch
The Scream
Dois críticos de arte falam.
Via Malomil (um blogue que vale a pena visitar regularmente), este artigo em que, a propósito da venda de The Scream de Edvard Munch, se reflecte sobre arte.
Is a version worth $120 million? The only way I can answer is by asking another question: If I were suddenly handed the same amount of money for art, is that the way I’d spend it? No.

Indeed.
