"Porn Paris" Hits New York


Somewhere along the line, Paris Hilton has morphed into the leading muse of our time.
We've already ogled last year's instant classic Paris Hilton Autopsy; now may we present the oeuvre simply titled Paris, 2008.
Comprised solely of images snipped from porno magazine, Jonathan Yeo's work is now on display in New York at a temporary exhibit by the London-based Lazarides Gallery running through Oct. 10. The Hilton collage joins a similar porn-powered portrait of President George W. Bush, as well as images of Tony Blair and Andrew Lloyd Webber in the show, titled "The Outsiders."
While the Hilton piece isn't for sale—noted British artist Damien Hirst snapped it up for an undisclosed sum—Hilton completists can still plunk down $20 for a poster of Paris, 2008. Get 'em while they're hot.
