Someone paid $15 million for a really strange statue

/

Have you heard of Takashi Murakami? You may have, if you know Kanye West. Takashi designed the covers for Kanye’s “Can’t Tell Me Nothing” and “Stronger” singles. He also directed the artwork for the Graduation album.

You may not have known that Takashi also sculptures, among other artistic endeavors. One of his sculptures, My Lonesome Cowboy, sold for $15 million at Sotheby’s last week. *gulp* Stunning, especially considering that the sculpture is 8 foot tall and shows a man ejaculating. One long ejaculate in the shape of a lasso, swirling high over his head. Aren’t you glad you went to college?

Whoever pays $15 million for an ejaculating cowboy lives in a fantasy world. The same fantasy world where he thinks someone can ejaculate in the shape of a lasso. Trust me. You can spin all you want, but all that happens is your curtains get really dirty. Then, your roommate starts nagging you about the ’smell’. Dude, I’m an artist, just like Murakami. Oh what, he did it as a sculpture? Well, I’m all about living art.

Another sculpture, entitled Hirapon, shows a manga-type girl squirting titty juice out of size double-H breasts. This seems like a fantasy also, but I’ll have to verify it with my mother.
