Artist's shit is a work of art by the Italian artist Piero Manzoni that was influenced by Marcel Duchamp's readymades.
In May 1961, Manzoni collected his own feces in 90 numbered cans, which contain 30 grams of feces each. He labelled them as '100% pure artist's shit' in Italian, English, French, and German, and sold them for the price of their weight in gold.
Their current estimated value stands at approximately EUR30,500 (US$25,000–35,000).
Some of the cans have exploded or leaked as a result of internal pressure or the corrosion of the metallic parts.
Although one is expected to suppose that the cans actually contain human feces, it has been said that they actually contain a kind of peach jam.
