An artist:1. bought an Andy Warhol drawing for $20,000.2. made 999 high-quality forgeries.3. shuffled them.4. sold each of the 1000 drawings for $250.You might get the original $20,000 Warhol, but you’ll never know. This hurts my brain and I'm loving it!It's a reasonable price for common art. No lottery. Nobody is ripped off. The artist profits hugely, yet gives away a unique item far below market value, but its receiver won't know.It challenges our value system in very Warhol-way.
