Liquid Art

Mark McGowan lis letting the water flow in his London art gallery. "The Running Tap," is McGowan's effort to protest against wasted water in London by blatantly letting it go down the drain. "When you've got the tap on at home, you don't think about it. That's why this is art, because it makes people consider it," the environmentalist said.This expensive exhibition could waste about 3.9 million gallons of water and land McGowan in a legal battle with Thames Water. The art gallery has already swallowed about 193,000 gallons of water... McGowan previously participated in equally audacious exhibitions including sitting in a bathtub of baked beans with french fries in his nose to support the full English breakfast, and pushing a nut with his nose for seven miles to protest student debt.
