Museum Goers....?



Destruction of objects in museum environments?
Part of my thesis for graduate school is on the destruction of objects in museum environments caused by visitors or staff. I am looking for real life examples of people destroying works of art. Have you ever witnessed anyone touching, writing on, climbing on, etc. a work of art in a museum or museum like setting? Have you ever seen someone disregard ropes or other barriers to get a closer look at a work of art? Have you ever seen anyone leave garbage behind? Take flash photography? Have you ever witnessed a security guard repremanding someone for any of these things? If you have seen someone do something along these lines or if you have done any of those things could you give me an example. I would really appreciate it. (If you have done any of these things I will not think less of you and will not include any names or screennames in my paper) Thank you in advance.

Well, my boyfriend and I were both cautioned for getting too close to a picture at the St. Louis Art Museum -- we honestly didn't see the line! The worst crowds I ever saw, though, were at the Louvre. People were blatantly taking flash photos of the Mona Lisa, and it was so crowded that the guards were unable to stop them.
I went to an outside art exhibit. A child climbed on one of the sculptures and the parent let him.
