Can we talk about that closed shop in Boise with the mannequin display, was it art or just lazy?

Walked past a boarded up shop on 8th street in Boise last month and the window had 3 mannequins wearing nothing but old phone books duck taped to their chests with a sign saying 'read more'. I figured it was some lazy junk until a barista told me the owner did it on purpose before closing, said it was a joke about how nobody reads anymore. So was that clever or just a guy who didn't want to pack his stuff, what do you all think?
