Art student Thorarinn Ingi Jonsson has been given a conditional discharge and placed on probation for planting an object resembling a bomb outside the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto. Jonsson, an Icelandic citizen who was attending the Ontario College of Art and Design (OCAD), said he wanted people to think about where art is placed and how that changes their view of it. He described it as a conceptual art piece, using plastic, wood and glass and a video.
(... it was still a dumb idea, Thor!)
