As Gawker posted the other day, in an act of what now seems like prescience, Chicago artist Chuck Meyers painted a leaking “BP Truck” in oil. This was back in 2006 and was simply part of his Series of Car Problems. Now he has made a new version, called Oil Spill– Matchbox BP Truck, which is for sale on eBay for the next few days.
