Hillary Clinton spent an hour reading her controversial emails at a public art exhibit

Hillary Clinton's emails are now officially works of art.

On Tuesday, the 2016 Democratic nominee stopped by an art exhibition at Despar Teatro Italia in Venice, Italy, to sit at a replica of the Oval Office's Resolute Desk for an hour and read through print-outs of the very emails that caused such controversy during her presidential campaign.

The exhibition, by artist and poet Kenneth Goldsmith, is called "HILLARY: The Hillary Clinton Emails" and features 62,000 pages of her emails — which WikiLeaks claims were sent between 2009 and 2013 — stacked on a wooden desk.

On Thursday morning, Clinton tweeted a photo of herself seated at the desk leafing through emails, and jokingly wrote, "Found my emails at the Venice Biennale. Someone alert the House GOP."

Goldsmith also tweeted a few shots of Clinton reading her emails and interacting with people at the exhibition. In an email to the Huffington Post, he said the visit "was a surprise," though "someone close to Mrs. Clinton" had informally contacted them days before she stopped by.

Curator Francesco Urbano Ragazzi told the publication that the organizers initially assumed the rumored Clinton visit was a joke, but after they saw her security on Tuesday morning they knew she was serious.

According to the online description of the exhibition, "The pile of papers is rather unimpressive, rebutting Trump’s efforts to make them monumental."

"In this way, Goldsmith creates an anti-monument to the folly of Trump’s heinous smear campaign against Clinton. In an ambient somewhere between a library, a theatre stage and an embassy, the language of digital bureaucracy is transformed by Goldsmith into a work of literature," the description reads.

"Everybody was very excited [during Clinton’s visit]," Urbano Ragazzi told the Huffington Post. "I think the scene was so extraordinary that many customers believed that she was just a lookalike at first."

Clinton appeared to be a real fan of the exhibition, though she reportedly said that her emails "are just so boring."

I'm sure Donald Trump won't love this artistic display, but perhaps one day he will have the honor of sitting at an exhibit of his tweets.

If you'd like to see the Clinton exhibition for yourself, it will remain up until Nov. 24.
