Munch's the Scream stolen from museum

[cj]

or it is now in a private collection protected by laser beams and sensor pads and dobermans Don't be surprised if it does get sold on the black market, and its unlikely the buyer or the seller will get caught if it does go that way.


Artwork can be copied too - and just like books and music, modern interpretations give old stories new meaning ... but wouldn't you be in awe if you got to see the original 'bible'?! Wouldn't that be different than reading the mass produced (and heavily altered) copy the mormons leave in the top draw in marriott hotels?!?!

Its a priceless experience that has a different value to every person - to me lots, to you not much LOL

The 'prices' that dealers and experts come up with for these things are just pulled out of their asses - an item is only worth whatever a buyer is prepared to pay for it and considering it isn't 'for sale' how can it have a purchase value??!! These material items are what define our culture and progress but humans can't appreciate something for those reasons unless it has a pricetag attached

I just love art and history ... sorry to get started on a tangent LOL
