Artist Sues Hotel, Claiming His Paintings Became Infested With Bedbugs, Were Used In Porn Shoots

Hotel guests are notorious for treating their temporary living quarters with utter disregard; the phrase “trashing a hotel room” has been part of cultural parlance since at least the dawn of the rock star. Even the poshest of resorts often fall victim to their guests’ worst proclivities. In spite of all the obvious risk involved, one artist thought it would be a good idea to not only have his artwork displayed throughout a luxury hotel, but to install that artwork in the form of headboards. Now he’s suing the hotel after finding out that guests have apparently been treating his art like any other piece of hotel furniture — which, obviously, includes being in the background of porn videos.

I would never purchase anything, especially anything made of any kind of cloth, that was once a fixture in a hotel or motel room, no matter how upper class. Yuk!

It's a hotel room not the Louvre. Relax Picasso you are probably lucky to sell those reproductions as it is. I will gladly come stay with my kids they could decorate the whole room for free.
