More like bad taste to me. 
Ewwwwww... It's a bit like 'look people are grieving. Let's poke them all with a stick and take advantage of people's misery to get on the news.'
I 'get' it.

I 'get' it, but I still find it distasteful and pointless. Amazing what people try to pass off as 'art' 
You do the artist's work for him.
He said he wanted to provoke.
Why don't you just ignore it?

I have a really silly question. If you use people in your art work. Do they have to stay frozen like that forever and ever? If not what then happens to the art? Is there a rota or something?

They are TRUE Artists, not those folks who stick a urinal to a wall in a Gallery in the name of Art!!!!
