A duct-taped banana artwork is selling for $183,000 at Art Basel in Miami.

Two of the $183,000 banana artworks have sold. But there's no definite instructions for what to do if the banana rots.

Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan created a duct-taped banana work that is on display at Art Basel in Miami, United States.

According to reports, there are no clear instructions for buyers on if the bananas start to decompose.

The Miami Herald reported that owners can replace the banana, as needed.

Cattelan is the same artist behind the 18-karat solid gold working toilet art work titled "America," which made headlines in January when burglars stole it from its exhibit in Britain's Blenheim Palace.
