This Paris Hilton sculpture will be available for viewing in L.A this weekend while the Paris Hilton autopsy opens in NY.
Expect a bunch more of these celeb art numbers in the near future.
Artist Jason Maynard concludes his 10-year exploration of the cultural relevance and symbolic reference to candy in this stunning sculpture, "Suicide Socialite".
This Paris Hilton inspired and beautifully rendered piece takes on the guise of neither the moral high ground, nor the role of a public service announcement. In reality, this piece speaks more of Maynard's masterful portrayal of the pinnacle of modern day mob mentality's ability to build higher and higher pedistals for their celebrity objects to sit - for the pleasure of seeing them fall.
In this piece, Maynard brings his audience both the elegance of handling the subject through his medium, as well as the poise with which the subject effortlessly offers herself up for the taking.
The Venice Contemporary proudly invites you to view this particularly poignant and relevant piece of art for a very limited time.

so is this sculpture made of candy or something? i think i missed something from the “artist’s statement”...who by the is either a retarded star-fucker or a genius to glom onto these flavors of the moment and make them into mocking displays in a museum…which none of these “celebs” ever went into unless the paps were outside and they could get some PR from showing up to a suck-up celeb gala.

That looks like piles of vomit not blood. I was also lost on the “candy” part of the statement. I think I’ll go with psycho star worshipper.

Agrees w/shakezula.
Again, I say this “artist” needs a psych evaluation and I highly doubt he knows a damn thing about the mob, let alone connecting it with Paris Hilton.
