This contest is fueled by the following news:
Would you become ill if you saw the legs being hacked off Michelangelo’s David? On the other hand, would seeing strips of canvas torn on Botticelli's Venus make you cry? This is what the Italian government is hoping. In recent years, pollution, vandalism and natural decay have run up a bill that is hard for the government to manage. Therefore, the arts laden nation is seeking help from its citizens to foot the bill. Beware that fund raising usually gets a cool reception in Italy, however. Therefore, the government decided to use the shock tactics set forth preciously, with posters featuring the destruction of famous works of art. The tag line for the campaign by the government is: Without your help, Italy could lose something.
