href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/artanddesign\/maurizio-cattelan\">Maurizio Cattelan<\/a>&nbsp;said he did so because he was \u201chungry\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Noh Huyn-soo was filmed brazenly removing the banana, which was duct-taped on to a wall at the Leeum Museum of Art &nbsp;in Seoul, unpeeling it and eating it in front of stunned onlookers before reattaching the banana skin to the wall using the same tape and walking off with a satisfied grin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The banana, part of Cattalan\u2019s Comedian installation, gets replaced every two or three days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
