One man's art is another woman's mess.

German cleaner scrubs $1.1 million sculpture
APAP – 20 hours ago



BERLIN (AP) — Officials in Dortmund say a modern-art installation valued at €800,000 ($1.1 million) was seriously damaged after an overzealous cleaning woman scrubbed away a patina intended to look like a dried rain puddle.

City spokeswoman Dagmar Papajewski said Friday that Martin Kippenberger's "When it Starts Dripping from the Ceiling" remains in place at the city's Ostwall museum, despite the damage from earlier this month.

Papajewski says cleaning personnel had instructions to stay at least 20 centimeters (8 inches) away from the artwork and it was not clear why the patina had fallen victim to the woman's scrubbing brush.

The Kippenberger work was on loan to the museum from a private collection.

Kippenberger was a German artist who died in 1997.

I sympathize with the cleaning woman and echo Andy Rooney's remark in your previous article:

"There are a lot of know-nothing boobs who don't appreciate the modern art being put up in public places in all our cities," he declared peevishly one week. "I know this is true, because I'm one of those know-nothing boobs."

Amen to that, Andy! Me too!
