In reply to the discussion: California woman vandalized national parks [View all]Here is one of this works--

Running Fence[edit]
In 1973, after 17 stateless years, Christo became a United States citizen. In 1972, Christo and Jeanne-Claude began preparations for Running Fence: a fabric fence, supported by steel posts and steel cables, running through the landscape and leading into the sea. The fence was to be 5.5 meters high and 40 kilometers long and constructed in Sonoma and Marin Counties, California. For the project, 59 families of ranchers needed to be convinced and the permission of the authorities had to be obtained, so Christo and Jeanne-Claude hired nine lawyers. At the end of 1973, Christo and Jeanne-Claude marked the path of the fence with wooden stakes. On 29 April 1976, the work finally began after a long struggle against bureaucracy. Approximately 200,000 m2 of nylon fabric, 2050 steel posts and 145 km of steel cable were needed. On 10 September 1976 the work was completed. However, Christo and Jeanne-Claude had to pay a $60,000 fine, because they lacked permission for the coastal region.[citation needed]

Banksey or Rembrandt should get the same sentence (though hers was a bit on the light side). nt

except Banksy paints on man made objects usually not so pretty and Rembrandt painted on contract.

Of course. Replied to NoMoreRepugs who said merit of the artwork should count to the sentence. . nt

I wait for the day that murdering the wolves and bears who use those habitats also brings a sentence

Millennials. Their Instagram and Twitter fame are greater than our national treasures.
