art-bomb

Any form of art that results in a shift in popular perception, draws mass attention, or has been created purposefully to challenge the status-quo.

Use is a sentence:

"Banksy art-bombed Central Park with a pop-up shop of $60 paintings."

"The Beatles art-bomb opened the doors to eastern philosophy."

"Frank Lloyd Wright art-bombed the world of architecture by taking the environment into consideration."
