I Yearn For The Days Of Vivisected Cows
The City Museum of Washington has pulled a nude painting of President Bush from its Funky Furniture exhibit. Painting here.
Perhaps the painting was pulled not because it was mildly offensive, but because it was terrible. Look at Cheney. Why does he have that under bite? Is his jaw afflicted with Gout? Compare this painting to the painting on which it is based, Manets Olympia.
Since when did museums even consider displaying crappy editorial cartoons? Does this mean that Steve Baggs will have a future in the New York City art world?

Sadly, yes.
