brad-pitt-art-baselActor and art collector Brad Pitt isn’t feeling the recession as he was spotted at Switzerland’s Art Basel exhibit recently.

Apparently Pitt laid down around $1 million on new artwork and purchased a Neo Rauch 9-foot rainbow-colored racetrack painting.  Hrmm, wonder what Angelina is going to think of that one.

Must be nice to not feel the waves of economic turmoil.  I spent a dollar on a poster of Madonna at the thrift store, does that count as art-buying?
