El banquero solitario
Date:
Nov 23 2012
Un hombre trajeado viaja en el Metro. Utilizando frases clásicamente asociadas a la mendicidad, las invierte. En vez de anunciar precariedad económica y un estado de necesidad, afirma ser un banquero, sin cargas familiares, que no está perseguido por la justicia. Ofrece monedas a los viajeros, diciendo que si las cogen, ello le hará sentir mejor.

While this protest draws quick and reactive attention and awareness to the issue at hand; it does fail to make clear the message that they intend to protest. The audience, which seems to be the general public, may focus on the scandal of the protest. The the vulgar display people as a bloody pieve of meat. Yet, these shocking images do draw the viewer to the cruel way animals are handled by the meat industry.
