Ahora quedan en la colección 798 piezas únicas de esta colección del artista ...inclusive hay quién quiere comprar la escultura rota por su valor en este "incidente"

Lo rompió una señora (coleccionista) en un evento por la noche VIP dentro del museo

Placing a fragile artwork on a glass pedestal seems like asking for trouble to me.

Why must people touch things? Just don't touch it? Is it that hard? What about this do you not understand? What were you trying to achieve by tapping it? Clearly, money enough to be invited to such an event buys neither class (in the sense of good manners) nor intelligence.

I'm not particularly precious in terms of art. But these are still items crafted by people for the enjoyment (ostensibly) of all. It takes a certain, special kind of privilege to expect yourself above the prohibitions in place that allow for the continued enjoyment of art. I know those protections are there to reinforce private property, but the line does blur a little with art. And the effect is nonetheless the same. Respect is thing, right?

Much has been made of the recent shattering of one of Jeff Koons' balloon dogs edition.cnn.com/style/article/

Fear not though! This wasn't one of the iconic series made between 1994 and 2000. Instead it was one of 799 Limogue porcelain replicas (well, 798 now) bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-6

The originals are more than three metres long and high, and are made of stainless steel dailyartmagazine.com/jeff-koon

One sold at auction in 2013 for USD $58 million, so there would have been more of a fuss if that'd been broken christies.com/lot/lot-jeff-koo?

Crochet sausages? NO!
Balloon Dog! This was a simple pattern but oh there is a learning curve for the connection. Next one will be better.

It's Crochet Time!!!
Pattern : by Manda Robertson😂

I made this one all the way back in March, it was the silliest thing to do and that made it so satisfying and that alone makes it worth sharing
