A Picasso piece valued at $85,000 was stolen from Miami's Art Basel between Thursday night and Friday morning. The plate, titled Visage Aux Man (Face and Hands) was created by the famed artist in 1956 and part of a 20 plate set.
Police say there are no witnesses or video surveillance.
Was Lohag there?
ReplyDeleteRight? My first thought.
DeleteQuite a brilliant plan really, distract everyone with a cell phone charging twat and POOF...
ReplyDeleteLOL! Right?!
DeleteHas to be a reason there was no surveillance because where does an unsurveilled place exist?
They should check her twat for it
DeleteBetween performance artist/ vaginal phone charging chick and this SMH.
ReplyDeleteArt Basel becoming ART SHIT SHOW-SBasel
No security or video surveillance, that's always a good idea. /sarcasm
ReplyDeleteHow can there be no surveillance there with all that expensive art? Or no tracking mechanism on the piece. I bet there is, and this story was released so the thieves think they got away with it and get sloppy, while they are being tracked and hunted down.
ReplyDeleteInside job likely, security and venue in cahoots.
ReplyDeleteLet's see...Usher charges a phone with a twat. Diddy gets in a fight with Drake. Leo, looking like a fat homeless man, takes 20 models home (along with Greasy Bear). Art Basel sounds classy.
ReplyDeleteHow did a modern art exhibit degenerate into such carryings-on with such trashy people?
3 words: Pop Culture Celebrity.
DeleteDisgrace
DeleteJust like every other event these days. I like how Robert Redford doesn't want these trashy people (Paris Hilton) at Sundance.
DeleteTrue. , well she did a couple years . I think/hope he put the kabosh on that!. And Tara Tied and Carmen Electra. I was always wondering if it was Blist hooker week aka/sluts on ski's(not to be confused with Disney on ice lol. Seems to have regained the esteem it deserves
Delete@auntliddy Oh, yes, I forgot to mention the Picasso!
DeleteI suppose I shouldn't be surprised at Art Basel given the sort of people who get front row seats these days at fashion week.
It's the Coachella of art now..
DeleteThis sounds like an old episode on the TV series, Las Vegas:
ReplyDeleteA necklace with a priceless gemstone, the "Star of Kashmir", is on show at the Montecito. Monica decides that it is not to be protected by bulletproof glass, since it's too beautiful. Monica shuts down the security system to secretly try on the sapphire, but when the cameras are turned on afterwards the sapphire is gone. Danny and Mike try to find the sapphire before showtime, while Ed still doesn't want to come back. Meanwhile, magician Criss Angel roams the casino floor doing magic tricks.
I loved Las Vegas!
DeleteMe too. Guilty pleasure. ;-D
DeleteLeo probably smuggled it out in his beard, or in the purse of one of the 20 women he left with.

Delete"Purse?" You meant the other P word, right?
DeleteStill dont get why people pay thousands for his 'art'. Looks like a cheap silver plate with a smiley face on it but because 'Picasso' made it,it is a work of 'art'. LMAO! My dog's poop is more artistic.
ReplyDeleteI agree. I've seen some of his stuff that I like but I don't get the extreme hype either. I'd rather have a Monet, Chagall or definitely a Kahlo. Picasso doesn't do it for me at all.
Delete@min, I love Chagall. I have one piece of real art and its a Chagall that I hung in my bedroom. It's beautiful and I look at it everyday.
Delete@All Lace - I have I and the Village - but alas it's only a print.
DeleteWhere's Frenchgirl? It's Visage aux mains, not man
