A climate protester has been charged after vandalizing one of legendary Canadian artist Tom Thomson's paintings in the National Gallery of Canada.

The culprit smeared pink paint on a work titled “Northern River,” then sat and glued his hand on the floor in front of the painting until he was arrested.

Mackenzie Gray explains the motive, the criticism from artists and the recent history of similar stunts around the world.
