vik muniz, Tony smith die (pictures of dust)…

ok, check it out. this guy (vik muniz, the artist) took installation
photos of sculptures at the Whitney. then he took dust from vacuums
that had been used in the rooms where the sculptures were. he used
that dust to "paint" a copy of the photo. then he took a photo of that
dust painted copy. that’s what you’re looking at. conceptual enough
for you?
