Sure, store mannequins aren't Art. But since they deal with idealized bodies, gazing, and a careful balancing of the both the patrons' and audience's social needs, they aren't as far away from Art as they may initially seem.
I guess I assumed that store mannequins are pretty much the same all over the world, originating from the same Chinese factories and pushing American media ideals. I was wrong.
