This report should make anybody scream:
New York billionaire and hedge fund manager Leon Black was the anonymous winner of an auction in May for Edvard Munch’s 1895 pastel, The Scream, according to a report published Wednesday by the Wall Street Journal, which referred to unnamed sources close to the buyer. The piece was sold for $119.9 million, the largest ever sum at an auction.
The sale is another indication that the financial elite in the US and internationally has recovered whatever losses it incurred following the 2008 economic crash, precipitated by its own criminal policies, and is finding ever more fantastic ways to spend its money.
"Its money" is money these crooks STOLE from everybody else.
High-end art should go to museums anyway.
