Man Smuggles Own Art Into MoMA

  • One Comment

If you thought it was challenging determining the quality of art these days (e.g. does it – or does it not – belong in MoMA), you apparently aren’t the only one.  The British graffiti artist Banksy pulled off a nice prank recently, installing his own art in four New York top museums in one day.  It “only” took MoMA three days to discover it.

    Love this quote from Banksy’s site:

    “The time of getting fame for your name on its own is over. Artwork that is only about wanting to be famous will never make you famous. Any fame is a by-product of making something that means something. You don’t go to a restaurant and order a meal because you want to have a shit.”
