"Critics will say that photo bombing hardly constitutes 'art intervention,' which is the intentional meddling into a pre-existing piece of artwork or even an art venue, like a gallery or museum. (The performance artist who took a hammer to Marcel Duchamp's famous urinal -- titled 'Fountain' -- in Paris in 2006 and called it his own 'art' is a good example of an art interventionist. Same goes for an artist who manages to sneak his work into a museum.)

"His [David Galenson] statistical approach has led to what he says is a radically new interpretation of 20th-century art, one he is certain art historians will hate. It is based in part on how frequently an illustration of a work appears in textbooks.
'Demoiselles' came in at No. 1 with 28 illustrations....Marcel Duchamp's 1917 'Fountain' — a white urinal — was seventh with 18 illustrations, and his 1912 painting 'Nude Descending a Staircase, No. 2' was eighth with 16."
