The Slow Death of American Car Industry


This exhibit by Jonathan Schnipper is actually called "The Slow Inevitable Death of American Muscle." I think it was, however, conceived before the collapse of our national auto industry. These muscle cars are on a steel track, and set to collide over a period of six days in Brooklyn at the Pierogi Boiler. I think this is powerful in the sense that a series of graphs and charts would never have the visual impact of twisted metal. I also laugh when people fall though.
