Abstract Censorship
There has been a smidgen of debate about nude art on the other side of the pond. Seems a little beachy town in Britian fails to see the brilliance of Antony Gormley’s statue exhibition Another Place, which features a bunch of naked statues standing. Abstract, metal statues that lack all genitalia detail except for an artistic lump. But they are quite something.
What may be more disturbing is that the town refusing the statutes proposed getting 100 statues of their namesake instead. Ew.
Well, we’re probably getting more bang on the beach than these Brits who seem born with sand in their bums. They may even be jealous of this dog:
These statues are beautiful, but not hot. We miss a time when to be considered hot in art was to be pale, and obese, like the model had spent all day looking at smut on a computer an eating bugels. Of course, if that was attractive we probably wouldn’t be pale and fat cause we’d screw off the calories . . . damn irony . . .
