As much as I have an inherent dislike for any art where it's obvious that more effort was put into the artist's statement than the work itself, this one gets a pass from me for being so naked and on-the-nose about it.


Of course the best thing the museum can do now to increase the value of the work is sue the artist and lose.

Not usually a huge fan of defrauding people, but this seems to fall firmly enough in the category of "shenanigans" that I like it :P
