Artist's shit, Merda d'artista, is a work of art by the
Italian artist Piero Manzoni. In 1961 Piero Manzoni
collected his own faeces in 90 numbered cans and labelled
them as 100% pure artist's shit and sold them for the price
of their weight in gold. Recently a tin of Merda d'Artista
was sold in an auction house in Milan for £81,000.
