Poll: Which Infant Stool Sample?


I'm taking a poll. Which 1907 infant stool sample does Cai Guo-Qiang's Whitney Biennial Gap Artist Editions T-shirt most resemble?

a. meconium
b. constipated, greasy stool of artificially fed infant. this stool is due to the administration of too much fat. it is foul-smelling, like limburger cheese.
c. stool of dyspepsia
d. stool of a case of diarrhea discolored by bismuth.
e. diarrhea discolored by bismuth. note blood and mucus.

Def B, with perhaps a touch of C.

D, no question. It would of been better with a touch of blood.

meconium is darker, more like tar.
what's the difference between d and e?
looks more like chaw spit to me.

Martin said...

d. and e. differ in that e. contains blood and mucus.

By comparing Cai Guo-Qiang's art to human excrement you are attacking art and artists. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Banana Republic is the higher end of Gap and Old Navy is lower. So I think they should have different poops. Different workmanship, aspirational pricepoints and different poop thread counts. Cross marketing would just muddy the brand identities.
