'Photo Tip' from Helmut Smits Lets You Safely Pose With Masked Madmen

Dutch artist Helmut Smits' work almost always dares to be dangerously controversial, but 'Photo Tip' definitely pushes the envelope. 'Photo Tip' is a new installation that lets people take a photo in front of a terrorist hostage-taker backdrop.

'Photo Tip' is both comical and frightening at the same time, though I can't help but feel a sense of dread looking at these pictures. Regardless, art is meant to incite strong emotion, so check out 'Photo Tip' in the featured gallery for a fright.
