the most perfect way to piss off the French

Is by placing Jeff Koons' art in Versailles.   This represents possibly the most fabulous melding of ridiculous contemporary art and exhibition space EVER.  Michael Jackson and Bubbles surrounded by rococo decor?  Perfect!  The setting endows the work with a deeper irony than it had before--and with Koons, that's saying a lot.
