I was going say the art world is just money launderingThis is just white people trolling. Don't be surprised the "buyer" owed the "artist" money and they're doing this to attract attention.
Artist could have at least given breh an NFT!

I wonder if you can insure an invisible statue?
Took 67 years to think of that bullshytTitled 'Io Sono' (Italian for "I am"), the 67-year-old artist's sculpture is "immaterial," meaning that the sculpture does not actually exist.
Though he's received much critique for the sale, Garau argues that his work of art isn't "nothing," but is instead a "vacuum."
The vacuum is nothing more than a space full of energy, and even if we empty it and there is nothing left, according to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, that 'nothing' has a weight," Garau said of the statue according to as.com. "Therefore, it has energy that is condensed and transformed into particles, that is, into us."
Italy 24 News reported that per Garau's instructions, the sculpture must be displayed in a private home free from any obstruction, in an area that is about 5 ft. long by 5 ft. wide. Because the piece does not exist, there are no special lighting or climate requirements.
Multiple outlets report that the only tangible item the buyer will receive is a certificate of authentication that is both signed and stamped by Garau.
