Subject: [Leica] Sell your Instagram photo—for $90,000

Prince is at it again, selling the work of others (and this time it?s not 
even ?work?).

That a galleryful of poster-size enlargements of snaps purloined off 
Instagram, with fashionably nonsensical and self-consciously whimsical faux 
comments added, can be sold out at $90,000 per, is a comment on the, um, 
?artist?s? notoriety and a topic that I can?t even think rationally about.
