Recently, YouTube channel LifeHuntersTV took a cheap, mass-produced print costing USD12 from IKEA and displayed it in a fancy art museum. And in order to see if they could fool some serious art lovers, they told them it was by an artist called Ike Andrews!
The trick fooled everyone. One of the museum-goers described the IKEA print as "a depiction of chaos inside the artist's mind." Another "art-lover" found the level of detail in it to be "unbelievable."
When asked how much would they pay for this piece of art, one of them said, "If you could buy this for 2.5 million euros, I'd do it."
