In early summer 2016, uncanny events started to occur at the Hundred Years Gallery. Initially, the good people of the gallery did not pay much attention, as they thought it was the benevolent spirit of Melquiades, who had made the gallery his temporary home many a times before.
Yet it soon became clear that the gallery was in the process of being taken over by an unknown entity with nefarious intentions. This ‘Hostile Takeover’, as it eventually came to be known, unfolded by way of an evil marketing campaign, culminating in a bizarre display of objects at the premises of the gallery itself.
On the 22nd of September 2016, at precisely 19:17:28 hrs (GMT+1), surrounded by aforementioned display of objects, the ‘Nefarious Financial Spirit’ finally revealed itself to the public.
The events, as they unfolded can be traced through a Nefarious Marketing Brochure, an Evil Marketing Video (see below) and the Chronology of Events.
As of May 2017, the whereabouts of the Nefarious Financial Spirit are unknown, but there are rumours he is planning a spectacular comeback at some point in 2017.
