Two Artworks worth 13,700USD thrown in the bin

A woman in southern Italy has unknowingly thrown away modern artworks that were supposed to be a part of an exhibition.

Lorenzo Roca, head of the cleaning company, said the lady "was simply doing her job" when she thought two artworks were a part of rubbish left behind by those putting things in place for the show that opened on Wednesday in Bari.

Mr Roca said the cleaning company would use its insurance coverage to pay for the trashed art works, whose worth was calculable at 10,000 euros ($13,700).

My thoughts
I can't help but wonder if someone will find the artworks and if they do will they know the value? Well, now that it's made news, I bet someone will be on the look out! "Wink"
