I think Warhol would be amused.

When you confuse trash with artwork it might say the trash was pretty nice or the artwork was trash...................

Usually, we see the trash in the museums as art.

No loss of any significance to the art world.

Or, if I wanted to steal some valuable artwork, I might “claim” it accidentally went out into the trash. Or, my dog ate it. Or..

Sometimes normal people can't separate art from stuff your parents left behind when you are cleaning out their house for the last time.

Next time send people of culture to clean out the back room.

Anyone remember Art Buchwald? He wrote a column where he went to an art show and sat down a bag of groceries he was carrying. When he came back to the groceries, the groceries had just won first prize. What clinched it was a can of Campbell’s soup laying on its side.

So he came back a week later with a bag of gourmet groceries and the critics panned it as pretentious.

Poor guy couldn’t win.

The art isn’t what’s on the canvas. The art is in getting someone to buy it.

It was trash, so they treated it as trash.

In the film ‘Contraband’, the Mark Wahlberg character removes a large Jackson Pollock painting from the frame. He throws the canvas in the back of beat up van along with some old paint cans and brushes in order to smuggle it into the U.S. Customs officers take a quick look at the canvas and give the ok for the van to pass through.
