- from The Daily Mail UK. 12.06.22"Two artists were forcibly removed from Miami Art Basel after milking a woman's breast and selling it for $200,000. Artists OONA and Lori Baldwin staged an impromptu exhibit after their planned performance Milking the Artist was deemed 'too controversial.' In front of a crowd of 300, the two artists milked OONA's breast, which appears to be prosthetic, and auctioned it off. The first glass of milk sold for 50 Ethereum - which is equal to $64,000 - and the second glass sold for 158 Ethereum, or $200,000, before the two artists were forcibly removed from the premises.In a video, obtained by TMZ, OONA, dressed in black, yelled at the crowd: 'Do I need to be dead for this art to be valuable? Is this not art? Why does this make you so uncomfortable? Do I have to be naked?'Is this not art? Does a breast need to be in a painting or a sculpture to be valuable?'Baldwin, dressed in all-white, started the bid at $10,000 and it eventually went all the way up to $200,000. In a close-up video, posted to both artists' Instagram accounts, show them milking the breast as people filmed.  The two artists claimed Art Basel 'fetishizes' female breasts before they started their performance."see also: http://milkingtheartist.art/-------------------performer writer director Lori Baldwin is a Berlin-based performance artist who uses dark humour and glamour to challenge commonly held ideas about power, gender, endings, eroticism, and death.DMINTI.comLink:https://linktr.ee/madebyoonahttps://www.iamloribaldwin.com/Twitter:@madebyoona@co1born@dminti_io@museumofcryptoIG:@made.by.oona@dminti.io@museumofcryptoart
