We should have been forewarned about what passes for art these days when the National Art Gallery paid $1.8 million for this Michelangelo like work of a lifetime in 89.

I remember when that came out. My ol' man whipped up two colour painting but it had a squiggle in it. It was titled, "Bird Shit on a Branch" and he submitted it to the NAG with an offer to sell it to them for the bargain price of $500K.
He got a rejection form letter back stating they weren't currently accepting any new submissions for their collection at that time
