A History of Toilets in Art
This 19 November, it's World Toilet Day. From Duchamp's urinal to Maurizio Catalan's golden toilet, this is our chance to talk about a subject that is rarely discussed: toilets in art history!
In 1961 Italian artist Piero Manzoni took a poop and separated it into 90 small tin cans. He then sold those cans to art collectors all over the world….Ride along with Judy Ohio as she learns all about Manzoni and his crazy cans of poop!
