The picture below is a work of art

This is called the Van Gogh chair.. Some tourists sat on it and broke it in a museum in. Italy. Then they fled.. See the security camera video below.

The chair is crystal-covered, made by the artist Nicola Bolla.

I think the whole thing is hilarious and the museum shouldn’t look for the perpetrators. The museum, and the artist, can only blame themselves..

Why would anybody make a chair so dang weak you couldn’t sit in it? What is it made of? Why wouldn’t you just buy a regular chair and glue your glitter on there like any 5 year old kid would?

If it’s so precious and valuable, why is it in the museum unsupervised, up against the wall, looking like a chair that you’d sit in to try on some new shoes? Why don’t they have a rope around it or some kind of barricade? It’s not a piece of art, it’s a piece of junk..

Read the whole article here. I think the whole thing is beyond silly.

Everybody was in the wrong. The couple sitting in the chair knew they shouldn’ta. The attendant shouldn’t have left his post, the museum should have had the display set up properly, and the artist should have never made such a weak ass piece of art. And what’s with the title of the “piece”? Van Gogh chair? One might assume it’s a chair from Vincent Van Gogh s house and therefore was a real chair. Why not sit in it?

The whole thing makes me think of a story I heard about someone leaving their lunch debris on a table on a museum, and it stayed there because everyone thought it was an exhibit…

What’s the saying? One person’s garbage is another person’s art? That Van Gogh chair’s total garbage.

I think the chair looks better broken than intact. It’s far more more artsy and contemplative broken. It has.a sad personality broken.. Give a cash bonus to the couple who “fixed it” by sitting in it!

Happy Tuesday! Have a great day!
