The Students Who Fooled A Nation | Fakes, Frauds & Scammers
It was the story that outraged Middle England. 13 art students claimed they took a grant, spent it on holiday in Spain, and then had the audacity to call their escapade ‘art’. As planned, the press went after the students – writing column inches after column inches of righteous indignation.
