A car sculpture by Erin Wurm, created in honour of the German city of Karlsruhe’s 300th anniversary celebration, was recently issued a parking ticket by an unaware city worker.

Funnily enough, the gaffe has generated more attention for the city’s 300th anniversary than any other ‘intentional’ promotion could have dreamed of.
