Guerilla Artists Plants Fake Gitmo Detainee In Disneyland...

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/5335400.stm


Is this guy going to be the big artist that is remembered from our time? As much as I like what he's doing, it's taking art in a new direction, not that art has never been funny before, I just feel that it cheapens it a bit, soon you won't know what's real or bogus, but I guess that's always been the battle in the art world.

Ah, I'll try to help ya Paul Very Happy
It's called "political activism"---
Formerly known as AKA "publicity stunt"---
Formerly known as AKA "Public Relations".

Just because someone wants to put the 'word' aret in front ,
doesn't mean anyone has to buy that..
putting the word 'art' in front of it comes from
"public relations".
If this were a convo in the old chat..an image of a poopy floating in a toilet would appear..
people would say.."EWWWWWWWWWWWW".
Then another image of poopy would appear with
"BIG RED LETTERS"
over it that say "ART!" , and then...
people would say.."AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH".
