French artist Mike BOUCHET has a show in Paris at Galerie Georges-Philippe & Nathalie Vallois. It's a show whose central piece is a sculpture created from 9847 CANNED HAMBURGERS.

I'm sorry, is this the new zeitgeist? The burgers were commisioned and had nothnig to do witht the swiss fiasco.
Using BabelFish I translated the artist statement here are some choice cuts:
"Cock my buns, swallow my meat.
Taste the fire in the cellar."
"my bread Crunches, eats my meat,
Put fire at your palate!"
"The "CANBURGER" is the starting point D’a more total research around the important questions relating to the consumption of hamburger. In a style "Internationalist says", Bouchet carried out sculptures and great paintings which raise some major interrogations on the production and the consumption of food in the current world, of the fast-food to the military rations out of box, while passing by the movements American survivalists."
That's hard to swallow:
