Art

Dear Editor

Yesterday there was a newspaper report about the British art exhibition in New York. The row doesn’t wonder me, because the picture, which shows the Virgin Mary with elephant dung is a very risky combination. I don’t have anything against new art, but in some areas for example religion or sexuality it’s unjustifiable. Many actors believe that new art has to shock or they want to cause sensation with their brutal, erotic or abstract works. In my opinion every painter of these artworks wants to search for attention in the publicity with those shocking pictures. In your situation I would have made the same and wouldn’t allow the artist to exhibit his artwork.

Every time it will give problems with art that shocks like in your case and will get in conflict with the cultures. So stick on your opinion and be strict with scandalous painters.

Yours Alban
