[SATIRE] Treasure to teaching: How one person has turned from stealing art to inspiring it
Fifty 42 is 42Fifty’s April Fool’s edition and consists entirely of satire.

It is commonly accepted within the art world that if someone has a glass box to put something in, they are preserving and cherishing history, no matter where that thing comes from or how it got to them. “We have the most glass boxes.
