Much along the lines of a famous musician being ignored while busking, how will people react to a famous artist’s painting (which might sell for millions under normal circumstances) when it is found in the street?
Klara.be did an experiment with Luc Tuymans. What if you take art out of its usual context and expose it in the street?
Hit play or watch at YouTube.
Perhaps the emphasis of how important Luc Tuyman happens to be goes on a bit long, but I’m a sucker for social experiments, so waiting for the actual experiment is worth it.

Hi there,
I noticed that Nissan made a funny spoof of this clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fpXrt5wRPWE
Have fun, Sylvie
