Yeah, but is it REALLY art?

PADUCAH, Ky. (AP) - There's a giant pink bra hanging off a balcony at In Bloom Floral in Paducah. It's an advertisement for what's inside: an exhibit featuring 36 bras decorated by local artists titled "The Art of Underpinnings."

The Retired and Senior Volunteer Program at the Paducah-McCracken County Senior Citizens Center is sponsoring the exhibit in conjunction with the American Quilter's Society Quilt Show & Contest for the second year.

Artists painted or sewed items on bras to make their creation, which they named and described with a story.

Paducah-McCracken County Convention and Visitors Bureau named its bra, "Paducah or Bust."

Paducah artist Tatiana Cashon, who made "Pirates of the Carri-Bra-En" last year, designed "Group Support Bra," which was embellished with photographs of her family and friends for this year's exhibit.

"It was one of the most fun projects I have ever worked on," Cashon said. "When you mention it to someone, they immediately start thinking of ideas." ---

Remember quite a few yrs back (80's ?) when that guy in Miami hung all those pink sheets out over the water ?

That was arty I thought. Expressive and interesting.

Hes kind of a jerk off. He was doing a Tampa radio interview drunk one morning and he was an idiot.
