Back in 2016, artist Anish Kapoor struck a deal giving him exclusive rights to use Vantablack—a pigment so dark it absorbs 99.96% of light. 🌑The move outraged artists worldwide, who felt one man shouldn’t be allowed to monopolize such a groundbreaking material.Enter Stuart Semple 💡—an artist who decided to fight back in the brightest way possible. He created the Pinkest Pink, a pigment so shockingly vibrant it became an instant sensation. The twist?👉 Anyone could buy it—except Kapoor. Buyers even had to sign a declaration that they weren’t Kapoor or buying it on his behalf! 🌸✨But the feud didn’t stop there. Kapoor managed to sneak some and infamously posted a photo of his middle finger dipped in Pinkest Pink 🖕💖—turning the spat into global headlines.Semple responded by inventing more pigments like Black 2.0, Black 3.0, and Diamond Dust, all marketed with playful warnings banning Kapoor. What started as a battle over colors evolved into a worldwide discussion about art, ownership, and accessibility.🖤 Vantablack vs 💖 Pinkest Pink — a rivalry that proves sometimes, art fights are just as dramatic as the art itself.#Vantablack #PinkestPink #AnishKapoor #StuartSemple #ColorWar
