Millionaire Martin Mobarak torching a precious $10 million Frida Kahlo painting as part of an NFT launch proves that a garish display never goes unseen. The entrepreneur didnt bat an eyelid before flaming the work of a world-renowned artist, which shows blatant disrespect for others’ work. Moreover, he filmed himself proudly setting the small and colorful Kahlo drawing ablaze to promote his sale of digital versions of the rare 1944 artwork. The now non-existent work of Frida Kahlo was considered a national treasure in Mexico, landed Mobarak in hot water, and is being probed by officials in Mexico, according to the country’s National Institute of Fine Arts and Literature.
