Art purchased by Brangelina
A $226,000 painting - titled "Picnic" - depicts a white family of four merrily lunching under an umbrella on a red checked blanket while 15 starving Africans - including several children with distended bellies - look on.
A $75,000 purchase - a white bust with a bleeding bullet hole in the forehead - was a particular favorite of Jolie's. "She went nuts for that one," an onlooker told the mag. "She told [her baby daddy], 'I must have that one.'"
For another cool $75,000, she picked up a portrait of a man hit in the head with a custard pie.'
Oh to be uber-rich

Honestly I think she gives SO MUCH already... probably more then most celebs out there. Who cares what she uses her own money for? Its HER money to do with what she wants.
I think it is better then these rappers who have millions buying platinum and diamond teeth and 20 "pimped out" cars.
We may not be as rich as Angelina but how many of us buy stuff we really DO NOT need when we could easily donate that money to charity as well.

Re: Art purchased by Brangelina
I guess it can be seen as supporting the arts. and Banksy is a very controversial artist. I just thought they were interesting pieces. The first one I like, the other two are kind of weird.

It may seem silly and a waste to some....however, it's art, no matter which way you cut it.
