Okay either they start putting this art behind protective glass or the ban children.

I don’t even know why Trump chose him for Secretary of State as he’s a HUGE TIME Neocon.

How do you damage something as worthless as a Rothko?

Museums need to post this historic verse, and stick to the policy:
Lovely to look at, wonderful to hold.
But if you break it, consider it sold.

How about to declare it a decisive improvement of No.8 or re-name it “No.9” from now-on.
Either way the collectable value will go up without any added effort.

Like Rothko, but understand the skepticism.
30 years ago at The Met a painting everyone would know was on loan and behind some velvet ropes when I reached over and touched the lower right corner of the masterpiece. My DNA is on that puppy.

And like most *modern art*, I wouldn’t give you $50 for it.

That’s not art and anything done to it would be an improvement.

Anyone who thinks that is worth 50M is an idiot.

That’s a masterpiece? The child could do a better job with finger paints.
