　　Italian cleaner accidentally throws modern art in the bin

　　A cleaning woman in southern Italy has unwittingly thrown away contemporary artworks that were supposed to be part of an exhibition.

　　Lorenzo Roca, head of the cleaning company, said the woman "was just doing her job" when she thought two artworks were part of rubbish lt behind by those setting up for the show that opened on Wednesday in Bari.

　　Show organisers said one of the works she gave to a city sanitation crew bore dawn included pieces of cookies, which were scattered on the floor, as part of an artistic arrangement.

　　Mr Roca said the cleaning company would use its insurance coverage to pay for the trashed art works, whose value was estimated at 10,000 euros ($13,700).

　　The cleaning woman is not the first person to fail to recognise a piece of contemporary art.

　　In 2001 a piece of art by Damien Hirst consisting of an ashtray, dirty coffee cups, empty beer bottles and crumpled newspapers was thrown away by cleaners at a London art gallery.

　　In 1999 Tracey Emin was on the verge of winning the Turner Prize for her conceptual piece "My Bed," when one of the museums&aposs patrons saw the exhibit and, believing that it had been vandalised, straightened it up and made the bed.

　　据英国《每日电讯报》报道，在意大利南部，一位女清洁工不小心把当代艺术作品扔进垃圾桶，这些作品是一个展览会的一部分。

　　清洁公司的负责人洛伦佐·罗卡说，这位女清洁工只是做了她自己应做的工作，她把那两个艺术作品当做是为了19日在巴里(Bari)开幕的展览所做的陈设留下的垃圾。

　　展览负责人说，在黎明之前交给城市卫生人员的工作包括散落在地上的饼干，这是作为艺术布置的一部分。

　　罗卡说，清洁公司用他们购买的保险来赔偿被扔掉的艺术作品，这些艺术作品的价值估计是1万欧元(1.37万美元)。

　　这位女清洁工不是第一位辨认不出当代艺术作品的清洁工。

　　2001年，在伦敦的一个艺术画廊，达明·赫斯特(Damien Hirst)的作品也被清洁工扔进了垃圾桶，其中包括一个烟灰缸、脏的咖啡杯、空的啤酒瓶和皱巴巴的报纸。

　　在1999年，特雷西·埃明(Tracey Emin)因为她的概念作品“我的床”(My Bed)即将获得泰纳奖(Turner Prize)，当一个博物馆的观众看到了这幅作品，以为床被弄乱了，还把床给收拾了并叠好了被子。
