D*Face Oscar Statue
March 10, 2010 ⋅ Uncategorized ⋅ by Staff ⋅ 8 Views

Over the course of last weekend’s Oscars festivites, British artist D*Face placed two large-sized re-appropriated statues into the Los Angeles landscape. Two different versions appeared at both Mels Drive-In (seen here) as well as Runyon Canyon. The Mels Drive-In statue featured the exposed flesh of an Oscar statue with the engraving “Beauty Is Skin” deep as a sort of statement to the current entertainment business.
