Guns and art

With so much talk about guns, gun control, good guys with guns, and all the other gun talk, Glasstire posted a roundup--and they promise more--of major artworks involving guns. It's really interesting to see so many guns presented in so many ways. I'll warn you, thought, that all of the works are serious art, but several are still not school appropriate.

That's no slingshot

The Italian government and art establishment seem pretty upset over this American gun advertisement featuring Michelangelo's most famous sculpture and a really big gun. Italy claims this is absolutely illegal, though I'm not sure how strong the claim is.
