Based on the work - Paris Hilton Obituary - Capla Kesting Fine Art have instigated a totally random art competition for children: A Paris Hilton Obituary Writing Contest! It's sick and morbid (but I'll probably tune back in to see the results). Seriously, this can't be good for civilization.
The rules of the obituary are simple; it can't exceed 300 words and the entries will be evaluated on development, command of topic, organization and their own creative flair. The contest will also be broken down into various age groups (13-14, 15-16 and 17-18). This is a truly bizarre competition with a morbid twist.
