If I were a good writer, I would write a science fiction story that was about a guy who goes back in time and convinces the art school that this Hitler kid isn't very good yet, but he has a lot of promise, so accept him.
So I hang around social media with a lot of Nazis (I have a fake white Facebook alt to befriend them and get them banned), and many of them collect prints of Hitler's art. It's pretty awful.
Oh, I know. He had technical skill but no creativity.
Eh, you're only delaying the holocaust for about a year that way. Hitler was a talentless hack and he'd never make it in the art world in any timeline.
Maybe, but I still think it would be an entertaining story.
It's sort of like this comic but longer.
Went back in time and killed history's greatest monster, Archduke Franz Ferdinand.
You would need to teach him the way of the artist statement. His bullshit would be 100 years ahead of anyone else and he would effortlessly conquer the art world. Men would still be wearing those goofy little moustaches and people would rob banks wearing masks of his face.
