I dont care about paintings in museum tbh, all of them feel dirty, promote exceptionalism and confuse the audience when it’s anything modern.

This is easy, walk in with lunch in your backpack wearing your tshirt under a hoody. Take off hoody for the protest, throw lunch on painting.
There is no “security” to bypass. You can walk into these places, most of them are even free entry with a suggested donation here in the UK.
