For some, the temptation is too irresistible not to wipe away the water rings on the coffee table or the dust on our reflection. That’s exactly what one well-meaning volunteer did when he mistook a work of art for a mirror. The Keelung Museum of Art in Taiwan this week showcased a contemporary art exhibition, which featured a dust-covered mirror on a plain wooden board. The museum volunteer mistakenly thought the artwork was dusty and took it upon himself to wipe it down with toilet paper. The 40 years of dust was mostly cleaned off before colleagues intervened, but the artwork could not be fully restored to its original appearance. https://lnkd.in/gWD2XBKa
