'A Sunderland art gallery has replaced its sculptures and paintings with an empty room filled with 14 smells. The For If There Ever Was exhibit at the Ryhope Road gallery runs until 6 June' (by BBC News).
Interesting, isn't it? A unique way to express new 'art' by using our nose. The smell of the Hiroshima bomb, the aroma of Cleopatra's hair and a death row prisoner's last meal and etc will be created in the exhibition.
I just can't imagine a bunch of people opening up their nostril in the 'smelly' room and sniff like detective dog. Isn't it hilarious?
