I think she did it on purpose.

Thank goodness it wasn’t Moochelle Obama or Loretta Lynch.
All four rows would have fallen over, not just one.

They should have at least nailed those things down. Who would know? It looks like she tried to lean on it.
To: BenLurkin
Note to Artist, next time use Gorilla Glue.

200k? baloney! who would make a display with 200k worth of display items and stands and have it be so flimsy?
probably not even worth 1/2 that.
clearly if the public is to be able to walk around them and such little space between them there is likelihood of them being bumped into or in this case fallen into by accident or on purpose.

To: Telepathic Intruder
Agree. Imagine if a toddler or fragile elderly person with balance problems hit the exhibit it could have injured either one.
On a side note, I remain unimpressed with modern art.
To: SaveFerris
Guarantee that it was literally a set up. To get attention for the artist/gallery.

I would say not more than twenty cents. Most art is a fraud these days.
The resultant performance art is worth much more.

Unimpressed as well. Who’s to say how much modern ‘art’ is worth outside the materials used to make it? Van Gogh died poor with his paintings worth little more than the canvas and paint at the time.
