Art or a bar of soap — OR an idea stolen from the movie, “Fight Club”

BBC NEWS | Entertainment | ‘Berlusconi’s fat’ moulded to art — I see a trend here. Can you imagine the kind of money you could get on eBay for “fat-soap” made from various celebrities? It’s a sick world. But it’s a very easy process!

An art work purportedly made from excess fat from Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has been sold for $18,000.

Switzerland-based artist Gianni Motti claims to have bought the fat from a clinic where the leader had a liposuction operation performed.

He moulded it into a bar of soap which he named Mani Pulite (Clean Hands).

The work was put on display at the Art Basel fair in Switzerland and was sold to a private Swiss collector.

The collector immediately took a shower.
