Titian’s Venus gets graffiti-clothed

February 26, 2011

This Minneapolis billboard promoting a traveling exhibition of Titian paintings from the National Gallery of Scotland which opened this month at the Minneapolis Institute of Art demonstrates that graffiti bombers and museum officials both have a sense of humor. The museum staff found it amusing and wanted it left up, but unfortunately the billboard company Clear Channel would rather have Venus freeze because they removed and replaced it due to company policy.
