 No, it's not art, and the person who chopped it holds no rights. The original photographer of each of those pictures owns the rights. Without permission, each photographer could sue you for copyright infringement. 
So lets say the person who owns the copyright over the face granted you permission. The person who owns the copyright to the body could still sue you.
