Yet, it’s remained an ideal that never came to fruition. Why the hell would I actually want to allocate time to writing about Paris Hilton? Well, all that changed, this evening. In came the news that British artist, Bansky – who once managed to swap famous art in museums (including The Louvre) for his own, without anyone noticing – has pulled his latest prankster-come-postmodern artwork off, without a hitch. |
