Maurizio Cattelan - Comedian (2019)

Let’s talk about the controversial conceptual art piece Comedian, a work consisting of a common banana duct-taped to a gallery wall. The banana itself could be replaced out as needed; it was the concept itself that was the protected work.

Marina Abramović - Rhythm 0 (1974)

Serbian performance artist Abramović remained silent and passive for six hours while her Napoli audience was presented with a table with 72 objects, including a gun. A sign directed them to use any object on her without any fear of being sued.

The Carpenters- Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft (1977)

Though released just a few months after Star Wars film, this song was actually instead inspired by World Contact day, an occasion during which the entire planet would telepathically attempt to contact extraterrestrials.

Donna Summer - I Feel Love (1977)

Classic…co-written by Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte, and recorded with the use of a Moog synthesizer, whose use in music up until that point was quite experimental and confined to niche performances.

Some additional facts to follow…
