Actually I was trying to be sarcastic - I dont feel that someone can do anything in the name of art - that was the point of my argument, surely the Ambassador was not taking an Artistic stand towards the art work.

As far as the artist breaking into the Ambassadors house - he could - but that would be illegal art.
