Artist Misplaces Picasso, Draws ‘Latest News’ Instead
In a daring display of conceptual confusion, an anonymous artist delivered 'A drawing that riffs on the latest news and happenings.'

This artwork is basically the visual equivalent of me trying to explain current events after three cups of coffee and zero facts.
