Ha-ha-ha. I get it. Man attacks urinal art. Has attacked it before.

[The Backlash Cometh]

Check out the clever wording:

An unrepentant 77-year-old French artist named Pierre Pinoncelli was in custody yesterday after taking a hammer to Marcel Duchamp's celebrated porcelain urinal at an avant-garde art exhibition in Paris's Pompidou Centre.

The 1917 work, a bog-standard white urinal mounted upside down, was "not irreparably damaged", said a spokesman for the museum, which is hosting a major exhibition of the Dada movement, a precursor of surrealism.

It is not the first time Mr Pinoncelli has attacked the piece, titled Fountain and valued at more than €3m (£2m). During a 1993 exhibition in Nîmes, he relieved himself in it and then belaboured it with another blunt instrument.

1. Did the urinal artist sleep with the guy's wife 50 years ago?

I wonder what his deal is.

2. Probably angry that he hadn't thought of it himself.

3. That's hardly the way to attack a piece of urinal art.

I mean, c'mon, a hammer? How lame is that? What the guy should have done was to belt down a couple of cases of beer, and a few vials of purple food coloring, then go to work... :spank:
