Sometimes it’s hard to define just what is art and what is not—certainly a critical question posed by the Dada movement early in the last century.
If the definition is “what’s in museums,” this qualifies, although it was removed moments later by a cafe waiter in the Museo Soares in Porto, Portugal.
I can’t offer a learned answer to the question: I only know that at that moment and that place, this accidental assemblage attracted me and forced me to try.

If you smoke under the open sky in New York is it not permitted ?
In fewer and fewer places, Garry. Not in parks, not within a specified distance of building doorways (to keep the smell and butts away from tenants, pupils, etc.) and not in outdoor cafes.
This is from summer of 2013. The disappearance of public smoking in Europe is slow and uneven; when the picture was taken, it was still allowed on the open terrace of the cafe.
This summer, in England, I was surprised to note how much it persists there.
Like the photo, PHeymont, but am surprised to see cigarette butts in a cafe photo from Europe. Is this one from the archives.
