Child damages $56M Rothko painting at Netherlands museum - UPI.com

Dutch curators are considering "next steps" after a child damaged the $56 million painting, "Grey, Orange on Maroon, No. 8," by American artist Mark Rothko while visiting a museum in Rotterdam.

First of all the painting doesn't look like much to me and definitely not worth $56 million. Secondly, this is why you pay for business insurance. The insurance company needs to pony up the money. Third of all perhaps you need to better protect your property if you are the museum. And yes, finally, the parents of the child needed to do a better job.

I am with you, not much of a piece of art. I must admit I think I have done better just painting on things to clean out a brush.
That being said there is no accounting for taste.
The child should have been better supervised and should have been taught better.

I am part of a field trip that takes 9 and 10 yo to the museum. I unapologetically tell the kids: "The docents don't care who you are, whose kid or from what school. If you get too close to the art, they will kick you out."

It's a shock to kids because, generally, parents are not teaching their kids that they must adhere to the rules of where they are. They are teaching kids that they are the center of everything and the rules do not apply to them.

Sadly.

In my time I have stood gazing at Rothkos and tried to better understand what made them worth more than $5000( big size canvas and frame cost) .

Miles Mathis -- himself a brilliant portrait painter -- has an interesting perspective on modern Art , noting that around 90% of all major galleries are owned / run by Jewish people .
That is -- just another area of misdirection and Chaos spreading etc , all linked directly to Deep State long term strategy.
Applies right through "The Arts" .

Wow, Sue, it seems like you don't really like kids that much.

Perhaps you should consider doing something else for a living. Not that you wouldn't still be a miserable human being, but at least some kids won't have to put up with you.

First, I'm not sure who would take their kids to an art museum to start with. The kids are going to be BOOOOOORED!!!

Secondly, I'm not seeing why this would be worth 56 million to start with. It's just three blocks of color. There's just nothing special about it. Art is a scam. (Sorry, Mom!)

Damn, that was harsh. WTF is wrong with you?

Ha! I bet you would be "voted off the island" before she was.

Not "white knighting" either because I disagree with her more than I agree.

no, it isn't harsh.

She's a rather nasty piece of work who has expressed hatred for everyone who doesn't fit into her nice, straight, Christian world. She truly thinks God hates Queers and Mexicans, just like she does.

I didn't even use my usual nickname for her that she hates.

I just found it crass, mean-spirited, and uncalled for.

Because you've always had a history of polite discourse?

Usually well-deserved in your case.

 

[JoeB131]

Okay... that's your right. Not that you ever refute what I have to say.

So then you can see why I might have an low opinion Sue, given the homophobic, Islamophobic, racist, xenophobic nonsense she spews on here every day.

Hey, chin-up Bubba, I agreed with you on the Hoser geese yesterday.

If its $56MM:
1. Thats not art thats a business investment.
2. You protect it. Put it under plexiglass. Has no one seen Glass Onion?

Yeah, I was amazed....Usually leftists reserve gassing for other things.

Rothko sounds like an ‘as seen on TV’ product.

At least it would be an easy "paint by numbers" type of thing....1, 2, 3.

I was thinking like child restraint device. The Kid Napper wrist band by Rothko. Put your unruly child into sleep mode with the press of a button!
