Artist Avenges a Bad Review, Gets Fined for Copyright Violation #NSFW

What should an artist do when they get a bad review? Taking the criticism into consideration and thinking more about their work is so … difficult. The Danish artist Kristian von Hornsleth incorporated a journalist who wrote a critical article about him in the newspaper Politiken into a pornographic collage, but instead of getting slapped with a harassment suit, he’s getting fined for copyright infringement.
