When Andy Warhol was inspired to create some porn painting he was fearful that any exhibition of the pictures would be raided by the police and he would thrown in jail. He had the brilliant idea of using ultraviolet inks to silk-screen the images on the white canvases so that they were visible only when illuminated with ultraviolet bulbs. If the police arrived the paintings could be hidden by turning off the bulbs that made them visible. The normal lights simply showed gallery-goers gathered around a series of blank canvases. Once the police had gone Warhol would be able to reveal the paintings again too the delight of his friends.
