  • A piece of art worth tens if not hundreds of millions of dollars ruined by some fucking tagger asshole.

    Catch him, shove his spray can up his ass, prosecute him and put him in prison for along time.

  • Pure speculation,but I find it strange that the guy who made the video didn't record the point where he says he confronted the painter,felt the need to take a video of someone simply walking upto a painting,stood back and watched it occur and recorded that,walked straight to the painting after the deed to video it and doesn't want to be on camera. Accomplice perhaps?

  • The vandal is an artist who's name will now and forever be "Mud" in the art world. Damaging a masterpiece to get yourself noticed is a complete taboo in the art world. An artist that doesn't respect the past has no future.

    gee I am certainly glad Oomamba has decided that the under 30 groups of illegals can stay here now--I mean that is the vast majority of the criminal element

  • "yeah, I thought it was pretty cool how he went up to the painting without fear and just spray painted it..." ---- what a fukking idiot! You caught up with him, didn't report him? Didn't even film him? Just thought it was cool and swallowed the ridiculous line about honoring Pocasso....He may be in on it, either way, police should bring him in, for being dumb or an accomplice.

    Something so cowardly about vandalizing priceless artwork....cannot understand why people do such a things. S More..

    • @dunkie26 Yeah, I thought it was pretty obvious he was in on it. Happened to be filming. Happened to catch the vandalism. Didn't want to be identified. Both Hispanic. Didn't film the vandal... Needs all of his teeth knocked out.
