A Social Experiment Could Destroy a Picasso
December 23. 2015 | Art Zealous
When given the opportunity to own a Picasso, most art lovers would jump at the chance – but what if you were offered the opportunity to own 1 / 150,000th of a piece of a Picasso? The popular sarcasm-laden card game Cards Against Humanity (CAH), touted as a “party game for horrible people,” is putting the fate of a signed Picasso print in the hands of its fans.
The subscribers of CAH’s recent Eight Sensible Gifts for Hanukkah promotion will vote on whether to 1) donate Picasso’s Tete de Faune to the Art Institute of Chicago (AIC) or 2) laser-cut the artwork so that each subscriber can receive a piece of it.
