An artist in New York is having an exhibition of photos that'd remind us all of bio lab in school. Its called "Product Dissections", and is basically photos of toothpaste tubes cut up, and pinned...
The logic behind it? According to the artist, "Toothpaste lent itself to be a perfect starting point, because the extremity of its marketing these days has gone into bizarre realms of colors and flavors to attract the new consumer with the bright and shiny and the new and improved. The tubes are also quite anatomical."
Good to see someone trying something different, and trying to make statement against over-hypey 'product innovations' that mean nought, but if this is art then I am Michaelangelo and Monet put together :)

Hahaha I was thinking the same thing - 'nice talker but how is this art'?
