http://www.cnn.com/2005/US/06/16/falling.artist.ap/index.html one of those times when i really hate "art" and "artsy-ness" - or at least trying to be. i will say no more.
In that case, my skill of derailing threads and posting senseless stuff that annoys Moestavern19 is an ART. This is seriously f'd up. To bring up nine-eleven stuff and to make the families of those who jumped remember how their loved ones died?? That's f'd up. I cannot even think about what photographers would have said: "Yeah, dude... cool! I will take the pictures! It is ART. Let's do it, yeah! Oh, yeah!" Freaks. Losers. I swear, I can watch some funny stuff and make fun of my own race and others and stuff, but not with the nine-eleven stuff. Not with that. I bet Osama is loving that shiznit.
I would have to really see it to make a judgement. It's funny that the people who are b****ing about this are the sames one who keep telling you "have you forgotten 911?". Bowl of fruit... Unfortunately that's about all the minds of some handle when it comes to art. Actually, I like it more than not. It would of been better with no explanation though.
I think it is a good idea. While it might be painful for the families, for the rest of America, it's a cold glass of water in the face. It's easy to sanitize 9/11 so that it doesn't hurt. But, the images of people falling will evoke the horror of the day again, for everyone not just those involved personally. It doesn't strike me as disrespectful, he just wants people to remember what we've been through.
