China: Statue made from Giant Panda dung sells for £30,000
2nd December 2010
Zhu Cheng, a Chinese sculptor, created the statue with the help of nine 11 year-old art students in the central Chinese city of Chengdu, the home of a giant panda breeding centre.
According to the Henan Business Daily newspaper, it has already been purchased by Uli Sigg, a Swiss businessman who owns the world’s largest collection of contemporary Chinese art, for 300,000 yuan (£30,000).
Just goes to show that the Swiss can be idiots just like anybody else.
