A cigarette in an ashtray. A cigarette held between the delicate fingers of a lady. Cigarette smoke rising to the ceiling. Smoking alone or with others. The first cigarette of the day. A cigarette after sex; while fishing; or contemplating an important decision.....
We can contemplate these and other smoking situations for a long time.It's not a secret that artists working in photography,painting and sculpting that smoking takes on special meaning in the final artistic results and outcome. Exactly in the 20th.century along with other social phenomena and life style, cigarettes appeared in the visual media. Where there are cigarettes there is smoke.
CAUTION: Smoking in ART will not harm your health!
