Okay, not my favorite art, but.. definitely my favorite artist squabble in a hot minute.

Long story short, this dude (Kapoor) bought the rights to use and market "Vanta Black" which has both military and commercial applications. He owns the sole rights as well as the technology (technology that utilizes nano tubing), so anyone who wants to use it has to pay an exorbitant fee and Kapoor would then own a sizeable portion of whatever product or object was utilizing Vanta Black.
This other dude (Semple) didn't like that, claiming Kapoor was fundamentally hoarding a resource and technology that could be used in so many ways to better humanity simply because he wants to make buttloads of money. He retaliated by making "The Pinkest Pink" and forbid Anish Kapoor from buying it or using it any way. It took Kapoor a bit of time, but he eventually acquired it and did a giant "*kitten* you" to Semple by photographing his middle finger in a pot of the powder. This led Semple to create "Diamond Dust" which is a glitter that is made by extremely ground up mirror fragments as a "*kitten* you, I dare you to stick your finger in this, you prick" back at Kapoor.
And it's just continued on for about 3 years now. I've gotten immense pleasure watching this back and forth go on in the art world for as long as it has.
