Would you burn $15,000 Louis Vuitton case for the sake of Art ?

For his latest artistic project, celebrity photographer Tyler Shields has set on fire a $15,000 Louis Vuitton suitcase. Torturing the vintage Louis Vuitton case, Shields, 34, broke the hearts of women around the world. He described the shoot - for his 'Provocateur' series - as being a 'crazy' experience.

This is not the first time Shields has destroyed a luxury item for a photo shoot. Shields says it took him few years to find the trunk as it is rare and not cheap.

You don't say.

In 2012, he burned a $100,000 crocodile skin Hermes Birkin along with then girlfriend Francesca Eastwood, daughter of the famous actor and film director Clint Eastwood.
