Among the artworks filmed and described are a cement sphinx, a truck of moving puppet farm animals driven and parked in front of various New York butchers and meat markets, paintings which were sold for a day in Central Park for $60 each which were then estimated to be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, and the 'Banality of the Banality of Evil', which portrays a man dressed as a Nazi peacefully sitting and looking out over an already existing landscape fromand then donated back toa charitable thrift shop.
