I prezzi dell'arte moderna/contemporanea sono stati inflazionati dall'incredibile massa di liquidità immessa nelle mani dei banchieri &co (non specifico del sistema perchè alla strada quei soldi non sono ancora arrivati).
Questo ha portato ad un lievetare di quotazioni continuo, arrivate oggi ad un livello quantomeno discutibile.
Vediamo di seguito una raccolta delle opere dai prezzi più "esorbitanti" .
