      I remember reading an article about new Brit art a few years ago, it talked about how this struggling artist suddenly became popular and wealthy when some super rich art collector decided to buy one of her pieces.

      There are numerous stories about how some piece found in some garage sale is worth $5 or million$, if this splatter art piece can be verified as a genuine Jackson Pollock.

      and yep the CIA was involved in promoting Modern art against Socialist realism
