New York, Oct 1 (ANI): More than 50 works of art celebrating or critical of pop star Britney Spears have gone on display at a Hollywood art gallery.

As to why the art gallery would think of having Britney as their subject, well that's because 'Britney is such a polarizing figure' these days, points out curator Steven Corfe.

"We reached out to a number of artists and found Britney is such a polarizing figure these days," the New York Daily News quoted curator Steven Corfe, as saying.

"People absolutely adored her and wanted to celebrate her bubblegum, pop princess years.

"Or they thought she was an irresponsible mother or wanted to play up the drug side of things."

The works of art, which includes one piece made from chewed-up bubblegum, is on display at the World of Wonder's "Just Britney" show.

Another piece is based on a picture of Britney stepping out of a car sans underwear. (ANI)
