Banksy MPs as chimpanzees painting sells for £9.9m
Oct 2019, BBC
I actually don't care about the price, but this mention here:
"The auction took place a year after Banksy himself intervened in a Sotheby's auction, when his artwork Girl with Balloon self-destructed as the gavel came down to become the newly titled Love is in the Bin."
I just thought it was really interesting how this painting, Girl with a Balloon, has to have two different names, like a person who transitions from one gender to another. There's a before and an after.
