Anish Kapoor, the artist who created the famous "bean" sculpture in Chicago got exclusive rights to use Vantablack and prohibits any other artist from using it. So another artist developed the pinkest pink and sold it to anyone who wants it except Kapoor, and they have to legally declare when buying it that they are not him and will not give or sell it to him. Artist Buys Rights To A Black Pigment So Others Can’t Use It, Gets Trolled In Return Quote It’s no secret that people on the internet find some of the weirdest things to joke about. There are plenty of memes that make absolutely no sense if you don’t know either the context or the history of the said memes, as well as some unfortunate topics covered in not the best light (we all remember the Harambe incident and all that followed). Well, Tumblr users found out about Anish Kapoor’s Cloud Gate and all the ridiculous Facebook events that people created related to it and they went along with it. While they shared their favorite images of “the Bean”, someone figured out that there’s more to the infamous sculpture than just the funny edits. People of Tumblr started posting their favorite Facebook events related to Kapoor’s Cloud Gate without realizing that there’s a bigger picture behind it...
