Kissing and Punching: The New Crimes of Art
Posted by jessica

redlips.jpgConflicting emotions for visual art have caused a recent stir in France; a woman wound up in court Tuesday for planting her red lipsticked lips on a Cy Twombly painting back in July, and early Monday morning a bunch of drunk kids punched a hole in the middle of a Monet.

Update: The kisser has been ordered to pay 1,500 euros in damages.
