The $10,000 is not the value of the tattoo on Smith's forehead, it is the value of the publicity that is generated by Smith auctioning her forehead and getting the tattoo. Exchange value arises strictly from the non-auratic. It outdoes dada as anti-art. The next step would be to have one's entire body inscribed with corporate logos.
