That is indeed interesting! I've seen something similar, but it was laid out on a floor.

Are they actual flattened instruments like at the Victoria and Albert in London?

I think so, it is the same artist (cornelia parker) I don,t know if they are the same instruments. there are a lot of old Salvation Army instruments in the exhibit. It might be a more dignified end than decorating a pub (that's a bar for our American friends).

Looks like an exhibition of the treatment of school owned instruments by students! :lol:
