Via Hollyscoop:
Proving that he’s recession-proof, Brad Pitt spent some major dough on a piece of art over the weekend. He traveled o Switzerland for the Art Basel international show for modern and contemporary works.
During the VIP preview of the event, Brad spent $956,000 on a Neo Rauch oil painting.
According to Bloomberg, the piece, entitled Etappe, is a 9-foot wide painting done in 1998, featuring a racecar driver.
The Wall Street Journal reports that Brad eyed the artwork for several minutes before committing to buying it.
