You call that art?

. Chilean-Danish artist Marco Evaristti is working with condemned Texas inmate Gene Hathorn (convicted killer of three in 1985) on an anti-capitalpunishment exhibit to be staged after Hathorn's execution. The murderer's body would be frozen, then made into flakes that museum visitors could feed to goldfish. Evaristti is most noted for his 2000 exhibit in which he placed live goldfish in several electric blenders and invited museum-goers to turn them on.

. Sculptor Marc Quinn unveiled "Siren" in October at the British Museum, feting the model Kate Moss, who posed for him — though not quite in the position Quinn ultimately created. Life-size and in 18-karat gold (that cost Quinn around $2 million), "Siren" treats the gaudiness of the so-called supermodel. As such, Moss is posed seated, holding her legs behind her head. (Some, but not all, news outlets chose to show "Siren" modestly, from the side rather than the front.)
