When Art Meets Trash: A Museum's Mistaken Throwaway of Alexandre Lavet's Sculpture | stupidDOPE
Briefly

"Our goal is to make people see the mundane in a new light," said Sietske van Zanten, the museum's director, emphasizing the mission of LAM Museum to highlight the significance of everyday objects.
The two hand-painted beer cans, meant to symbolize the casual yet significant moments shared between friends, were mistaken by a technician for just trash.
In an ironic twist, the artwork was recovered from the trash and is now displayed on a plinth to ensure its protection and appreciation.
The LAM Museum encourages a playful and introspective approach to art, aiming for visitors to rethink the meaning contained in overlooked items.
