Wondering What To Steal From Tate Modern…

Tate Modern, one of the world's largest galleries of modern art has opened a new ten storey wing this weekend. I went with my eldest, looking for inspiration and found plenty.

It's also home to Roy Lichtenstein's Whaam!

My feelings about the piece are, naturally, mixed.

But I did wonder if I could mount a defence against prosecution if I nicked one of these items from the gift shop. After all, it would be art, and I would be paying tribute to Lichtenstein's own artistic theft.

Obviously, I didn't. I doubt I'd be able to sufficiently explain the nuances to my daughter. Or the rozzers.
