Collection of 26 prints. Diane used a macro lens at weird angles to the TV to achieve what many thought were computer- manipulated pictures of fat headed TV anchors (WARHEADS) and newscasters. As a reaction to the increased violence of the Iraqi war, Diane re-worked her original Gulf War prints by dragging them outside and throwing potassium ferry cyanide (bleach) on the prints and immediately hosing them down. This "agit-pop" resulted in fiery red, orange, yellow, and white organic "explosions" on the prints...a visual commentary on how protected those who speak of the war, are in their safe, secure media "control" rooms.
