Edwards has a knack for creating pieces that attract publicity — his last work, unveiled at a gallery in Brooklyn, depicted Britney Spears on her knees giving birth on a bearskin rug.
Sex museum displays Hillary Rodham Clinton bust

NEW YORK (AP) — It's a bust of Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton — in more ways than one.
Cast in resin and bearing ample cleavage, a sculpted bust of the New York Democrat was unveiled this week at the Museum of Sex in Manhattan.
Calling his creation "The Presidential Bust of Hillary Rodham Clinton: The First Woman President of the United States," artist Daniel Edwards said he wanted to depict the 58-year-old Clinton "with her head held high, a youthful spirit and a face matured by wisdom."
Indeed, while Clinton's face is shown with a few wrinkles and other signs of age, Edwards cast her in a low-cut, floral dress that reveals her shoulders and chest.
"Her cleavage is on display, prominently portraying sexual power which some people still consider too threatening," Edwards said.
