Again some controversial ads to include into our exhibition. I really like the the image of the newborn baby but was actually one of the most censured visuals in the history of Benetton ads. At this point the language of Benetton communication changed radically. The February 1992 campaign showed photos of high drama situations as above a man assassinated by the mafia.

While my last image Duncan Quinn an ad for bespoke suit designer, shows a smug looking man holding a necktie around a woman's body who is wearing only underwear  & bleeding from her head. How this image of possibly a dead woman lying half naked on the bonnet of a car with her killer standing at her side give a positive imaging of the company & designer i find appalling.
