Frieder Burda Life story
Frieder Burda was a German art collector and Honorary Citizen of Baden-Baden.
Banksy: Love in the Bin's internal shredder deactivated
Museum workers very carefully dismantled The Frame
The German museum displaying Banksy's painting that partly self-destructed at auction has "deactivated" the artwork's shredding Device .
in its frame immediately after selling for £860,000 ($1. 12m) at Sotheby's Auction House in London in October .
suggesting the entire canvas was supposed to shred- not just two thirds of it.
The Museum wanted to prevent the rest of the artwork being destroyed.
Henning Schaper, the director of Frieder Burda de Baden-Baden Museum in South West Germany , said they wanted to avoid a visitor setting off the shredder.
"We have opened The Frame , we have all looked and we have seen that The Mechanism has been deactivated," he said.
In front of press and photographers, white-gloved museum workers "slowly and cautiously" took Apart the canvas on Monday afternoon to deactivate The Device , before replacing The Painting on The Wall .
The Woman who bought The Painting decided to keep it, despite it being partially destroyed.
It is now on long-term loan to the Stuttgart museum and currently on display at Frueder Burda de Baden Baden for four weeks.
Banksy's video, posted a few weeks after the auction in October , shows The Frame , complete with its shredder, being assembled in Banksy's studio.
It also shows footage from inside the auction Room - including a clip of the button which triggered the shredding being pressed.
Alex Branczik, Sotheby's head of Contemporary Art in Europe, said that the Auction House was not in on The Stunt .
He said the reason the shredder wasn't detected by Sotheby's staff was that they had been instructed The Frame was a key part of The Work .
, Branczik explained: "Pest Control [Banksy's authentication board] said very clearly: The Frame is integral to the art Work .
"Which it was, just not in the sort of way that we thought.
"We also had a third-party conservator look at The Work . "
Asked how the conservator did not spot The Frame 's double thickness and apparent weight from the attached shredder, he replied: "You address what you see, it was more like a sculpture. If it says The Frame is integral, you don't Rip It Apart . "
