The Fine Art File is a mission strand for The FIB Files, featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of Agents of Sabotage update.
Description[]
After acquiring the Darnell Bros. Garment Factory, the mission strand can be started through the Darnell Inc. app whenever it is available to the player.
Jodi Marshall will inform the player about a stolen piece of art from the San Andreas Gallery of Modern Art that has just been located, and due to be put on a black market auction. A self-proclaimed art connoisseur Ray Trotman has the stolen item secured in a hidden room inside his penthouse that can only be opened through Trotman's facial recognition and retina scans.
The Fine Art File, like other FIB Files, consists of four Free Mode missions, including three preparation missions and one finale.
List of Missions[]
There are four total clandestine operations:
| Mission | Image | Objectives (Darnell Inc. App) | Mission Brief |

| EMP Charges |

Jodi Marshall: “Trotman's proud of his security system. So much so, that he sent the LSPD the security specs so they could copy it and use it in their stations. Unlucky for him, I have access to the LSPD's garbage. Looks like there's a sophisticated alarm setup to deal with. So...”
Pavel: “Did someone say "EMP"? Oh shit, too soon...”
Jodi Marshall: “So... we'll need an EMP.”
Pavel: “Did someone say... Ah, I blew it.”

Jodi Marshall: “If we wanna maintain minimal contact approaching the penthouse, the roof's the access point we gotta breach. We need a chopper, one untraceable to our operation. Hit LSIA. I'm not speaking figuratively. Now, I like clean comms, no chitter chatter. Exactly like that...”

Jodi Marshall: “Excuse me, just... finishing up another phonecall. (Phone call with someone else) I could kick you in the back of the head, and whatever you type when your face hits the keyboard, would be more coherent than the message you just sent me... Yeah, fuck you. (Ends phone call) Ah! That was my contact. We need her surveillance drone to get close enough to scan our target. However, she's not cooperating. I've sent the location of her group. They're like us. But shitty. Let's take their drone and, if it goes wrong, she takes the heat. Win-win.”

Jodi Marshall: “This is it. Chopper's in position, charges are checked, and facial rec's primed. When you're ready, let's get to work.”

Video Walkthrough[]
Oversights[]
The thumbnail for the Ornamental Egg variant of The Fine Art File finale is a duplicate of the Tiki Statue thumbnail. This is an oversight and is yet to be patched.
Trivia[]
- The ancient statues used as targets to be stolen in The Fine Art File finale are modeled after the Hidden Package from Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and the Aztec statue stolen during Derailed from Grand Theft Auto V, and both are featured on the official promotional artwork.
- The original Hidden Package pickup sound effect from Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is used when the GTA Online Protagonist collects the tiki statue.[1]
