The Galleria dell’Accademia di Firenze, home of Michelangelo's David, has welcomed the creators of Disney's new film Lilo & Stitch into their galleries for a special promotional video. As you'll see above, the video shows the film's UFO Stitch causing chaos culminating in the creation of a Self Portrait in Marble inspired by Michelangelo's iconic statue. In fact, the Accademia have kept the prop in the museum on display for visitors until 20th June (in case any readers might want to see this piece of spraypainted foam in the flesh).
