(Thanks AJ!) A tried and true formula for achieving and becoming temporarily notarious includes a healthy dose of anti-government political art. If the idiots in government (in this case the Swiss) bite and do any sort of censoring, the artist is guaranteed overnight exposure!

"No one paid much heed last year when the Swiss artist Thomas Hirschhorn stopped showing his work in Switzerland to protest a right-wing populist's entry into the government. Now, in a new exhibition in Paris, a biting critique of Swiss democracy, Mr. Hirschhorn has provoked stormy scenes in the Swiss Parliament that have turned him into his country's most talked about artist overnight."

Even the Swiss! Geez!
