Love is in the Bin is a 2018 art intervention by Banksy at Sotheby's London, with an unexpected self-destruction of his 2006 painting of Girl with Balloon immediately after it was sold at auction for a record 1, 042, 000. According to Sotheby's, it is 'the first artwork in history to have been created live during an auction. ' The painting has been on permanent loan to the Staatsgalerie Stuttgart since March 2019. In October 2021, it sold at auction for 18. 5 million, a record for the artist. Original work The painting is an adaptation of Banksy's 2002 mural Girl with Balloon, rare as a unique work rather than a print. It was given by Banksy to a friend shortly after the 'Barely Legal' exhibition in 2006. Banksy has said he prepared the self-destruct mechanism at this time in case the work was ever put up for auction. Auction and self-destruction Sotheby's London sold the painting at auction on 5 October 2018, at an artist-record price of 1, 042, 000 (then equivalent to US$1, 366, 672 or 1, 184, 360). Within seconds of the gavel drop, the canvas began sliding out of the bottom of the frame and shredding itself to the audible sound of a siren and the surprise exclamations of attendees. The shredder stopped when the canvas was about half-way through, Banksy has said this stop was unplanned and that he intended to shred it completely. The work was housed in a deep frame and was plugged in to facilitate built-in electrical lights, which also powered a shredding device hidden in the bottom edge.
