Brad Pitt the art buff in aviator shades spends a cool $1m on a new canvas

Brad Pitt set cameraphones a flutter as he turned up at an art exhibition in Switzerland.

And instead of using his excellent eyesight to check out the exhibits -he kept his peepers shaded by his trusty aviator shades as he viewed the exhibits at Art Basel.

But it clearly didn't affect his judgement as he spent $1million on a new artwork to add to his collection.
