The artist is preparing an action to destroy world masterpieces in defense of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange

Conceptualist Andrei Molodkin, who lives in France, intends to destroy almost two dozen paintings by world famous artists, including Picasso, Rembrandt and Warhol. He will carry out the action if WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange dies in prison. The artist told the British channel Sky News about his idea.

According to Molodkin, he collected 16 works of art (their total value of $45 million) and locked them in his safe. There he also placed an “extremely caustic” substance and a special device with a timer – a “dead man’s switch.”

The final hearings on the extradition of Julian Assange from the UK to the US are scheduled for February 20-21.
