Spears art exhibition on display
An art collection based on the life of Britney Spears has gone on show in Hollywood.

Just Britney comprises more than 50 pictures and sculptures designed to illustrate fame in the 21st Century.

The exhibition, by Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato, includes a picture of the star made of chewed bubble gum called Gum Blond XLVIII. It also features a paparazzi shot of Spears climbing out of a car without underwear, entitled Snake Charmer.

Co-curator Steven Corfe told Reuters: “We reached out to a number of artists and found Britney is such a polarising character these days. She personifies our obsession with celebrity culture, and it's an obsession that won't die down no matter how far she goes off the rails.”

He added: "We love to put people up on a pillar and we love even more to shoot them down."

The exhibition is on display at Bailey and Barbarto's World Of Wonder art gallery.
