A French art school is under fire for a photo of their students that was used as an advertisement for their upcoming US institution in which some students were darkened to look black.
The bizarre before and after-alteration shots show some students with vastly darker skin, presumably in an effort to make the student body at the Emile-Cohl drawing school in Lyon appear more diverse.
The school, however, is shirking the responsibility for the altered image- placing the blame on the advertising company they hired for the Los Angeles promotion of its upcoming new branch there.
