We all remember those cartoons in which Elmer would shoot Daffy and his beak would turn around, or a piano would fall on Tom and he would get out of it with little stars circling his head. But what if they actually showed the blood that would be the consequence of said actions? That question is answered in the current exhibition in London's gallery
The Aquarium L-13:
Splatter

"Splatter" is the brainchild of jCauty&SON, composed by artist James Cauty and his 15 year old son, Harry, who came with the concept of presenting “the plausible impossibility of death in the mind of cartoon characters” -though I'm pretty sure those weren't the exact words the kid used when he thought about it- While brutal, Cauty believes it shouldn't offend anybody, as it is meant to be slapstick violence, though he does agrees that very young children shouldn't attend the exhibition.
There's still no word from Warner about the exhibit -the whole thing smells like lawsuit- in the meantime it will be open until november 8th with sellings of the prints and the resin statues.
