Do people buy art in the US as a tax right off, $90,000 is a huge amount for this sort of found art.
The one that made $90,000 is a good photo portrait but I have no idea why it commands such a price.
It's incredibly mean and uncaring of the artist not to get permission and not to give the original photographers ( I presume they are all selfies) a percentage of the profits.
Same goes for the gallery, (who usually take 40% of the sale price).
The idea, using found images, goes back to Warhol, it's not at all original.
