Remember that artist Daniel Edwards who did the "Britney giving birth" sculpture?

[Maddy McCall]

ronnyk...you're gonna LOVE this:

Remember the sculptor who did this statue of Britney giving bith--the one that was even dedicated as a "pro-life monument?"



Well, he's BaaaAACK, this time for doing a Paris Hilton autopsy sculpture, the goal of which is to counter "the disturbingly glamorized trend of Hollywood's girls gone wild." The sculpture is positioned on an autopsy table, and even has "removable innards."

Ummmm....ok.

[JI7]

1. i think he is a pervert

[Maddy McCall]

2. Yeah, I do, too.

But the rabid religious right seems to adore him.

[Chan790]

4. Of course they do...

I can tell from the second statue shown that he has a necrophiliac fetish. Both statues are posed in sex positions. Why on earth wouldn't the rabid Christian right be enamored with that??

[Maddy McCall]

6. LOL. Look at my post below.

I think it's post 5.

You and I think alike.

[Hugin]

3. Oh, my...

[Maddy McCall]

5. I think the implication from the position is that...

she died having sex, and rigor mortis set in.

Pretty weird for a sculptor to conceive that idea. "I think I'll sculpt Paris Hilton dead after sex, after rigor mortis sets in. Gotta do something to raise the bar after that Britney sculture."

[Hugin]

7. ...

Pretty fricken weird... (Even by my low low standards)

I concur

[Maddy McCall]

9. Yeah...

I can get pretty sick with my humor...

I guess when you and I agree that it's weird,,,it's REALLY weird.

[Hugin]

15. No only -THAT-... then... then... THEN... There's the...

Chihuahua!



OMG! May what passes for a higher power preserve us!

[Maddy McCall]

17. Do not laugh at the tiara-adorned mourning chihuahua with cartoonish eyes.

[Hugin]

20. !

Hmm... I wonder if Skinner has been pimping out his doggie as a nude model?

Send this thread to GD... STAT!

[Maddy McCall]

21. CALL YOUR MUSEUMS RIGHT FUCKING NOW!!11!11

And beg them NOT to display this artists' work.

[Hugin]

44. It's all so clear to me now... Shutting down the ATA!

[Chan790]

8. Yeah...

because Ms. Spears giving birth on a bearskin rug in the doggy-style position wasn't nearly creepy enough.

What's next? Rosie O'Donnell getting a lobotomy whilst pole-dancing?

[Maddy McCall]

11. ....

[Nicole]

16. He's fantastic.

I don't really care for his subject matter but he does a remarkable job on them.

[Hugin]

18. I'm thinking he's a frustrated taxidermist...

True... And if it keeps him in clay it's probably worth his time.

But, is it art?

[Nicole]

22. Could be.

I've seen much worse that was called art.

[Hugin]

24. True... Very true... In fact you've convinced me!

I shall make a donation of two 'Britneys' to be... um... mounted (for lack of a better term)
alongside the steps at the Library for all to enjoy!

[Maddy McCall]

26. I'm thinking--

they should be mounted on the flying buttresses of the museum, way up high, rear facing out...and made into water spouts.

You know how the water flows out of the gargoyles' mouths in gothic architecture...well...

Nevermind.

[Hugin]

29. It must be art... I just felt a slight pang of nostalgia.

If only Ashcroft was still the AG...

Think of the circus as he tried to deal with a 'Britney' in the traditional briefing area.


Anyhow... It says the innards come out of the 'Paris'. How? I don't see any seams or zippers.

[Maddy McCall]

31. I guess they're in there somewhere...

and I won't elaborate any further on how they might be removable, lest I get this thread locked.

[Maddy McCall]

19. I guess I'm blinded by his thesis.

It's hard for me to see artistic merit when my eyes are watering from laughing.

(Nothing at all against you...it's just not my taste.)

[Nicole]

23. Yeah, his thesis does suck.

Remember the bust he did of Hillary Clinton?



He aged her by several decades in that.

[Maddy McCall]

25. Holy crap!

I've never seen that.

Yeah, he did age her by a couple of decades...and he demeans her (she's a senator, for chrissakes) by putting her in a lace bustierre.

[Wapsie B]

27. Good lord, that's art?

I'm dumbfounded.

[Maddy McCall]

28. But does it turn you on a little?

[Wapsie B]

30. Uhhhhhhhh NO!

If I want to be aroused I can go to a porn or erotica site.

[Maddy McCall]

32. I's just ribbin' ya.

[Wapsie B]

33. Oh I knew ya were.

[BlueIris]

34. Um...ISSUES, anyone?

My GOD. What a sick twist.

[Maddy McCall]

35. Yep...pretty sick, eh? (graphic photo warning)

I wondered what the guy looks like who conceived (no pun intended) these sculptures...

Here he is:



And here's his sculpture "Suri Cruise's First Poop."






Guy is definitely out there.


.

[BlueIris]

37. Okay, that's just wrong.

Is he going for "satire" in his sick mind? Sick, sick, sick.

[Heidi]

36. He seems to be a fine sculptor, technique wise,

but I think the work is the height of tacky.

[Maddy McCall]

38. Yeah--although I don't think that his Britney sculpture resembles her face...

can't speak for the rest of her. Paris does look like Paris. But the dog looks like something out of a Hanna Barbera cartoon.

He seems ok on human form, though. (I've seen college students do just as well. I think his greatest talent is marketing through the shock factor.)

[Frank Cannon]

39. The Britney sculpture looks more like Ashley Judd. n/t

[Deja Q]

40. Wow, What the dude ain't sayin' with words come out loud and clear.

Britney is droppin' babies like a leaky faucet...



Hmmm, legs wide open and there's a dog panting by her face - in true stereotypic male style.

As for removable innards, just where does one shove one's hand to get at the removable innards?

[YellowRubberDuckie]

41. That dude has a little too much time on his hands...

And that doesn't look like an autopsy. That looks like Paris getting ready to get screwed.
Duckie

[madrchsod]

42. gee i think i`ll take my daughter to see

paris hilton`s legs spread apart and handle paris` guts so she`ll see what happens if she drinks and drives..ya this should be seen in every school in america...this guy is so full of himself and maybe just a tad insane

[SKKY]

43. That's so many different kinds of wrong, I don't know where to begin...

...What's this guys fascination with trashy women?

[Maddy McCall]

45. Kick for RKM

[nini]

46. He's one twisted mother fucker

[Maddy McCall]

47. Hey, woman.

I agree...very twisted. Did you see the "Suri's Poop" sculpture above?

Wonder what made him think, "I shall document Suri's poop!" ???



Oh...I need to PM you something back REALLY funny.

[nini]

48. yep.. saw the poop one too.

That is just stupid, not that the others are good, but that one is really stupid.

leaving work now. I connect with you later.

[Maddy McCall]

49. You'll have a PM when you get home.

[ronnykmarshall]

50. Good god!!

That poor dog!

[NV Whino]

51. Oh ick.

Is that Skinner's dog?

[BarenakedLady]

52. Ick

Wasted talent, imo.

[cemaphonic]

53. Surely one Jeff Koons was enough.

No wait, more than enough.

It is kinda funny that the pro-lifers liked the Britney sculpture though.
