"Your entire argument relies completely and utterly upon
what you believe people think rather than any factual
evidence against veganism or animal rights theory. Day
after day you use the same ad hominem approach instead
of anything even close to a rational criticism, and I've yet
to see you make a single valid point. "

'For all its notoriety, "Piss Christ" is only one ****trait in a body of
work that dates back to the 1980s. Early Serrano photographs
feature Catholic icons or imagery depicted with blood, milk, and
water. Another series features the artist's semen, and he has also
used butchered cows' heads and other body parts. The idea of
making pictures based on bodily fluids grew out of Serrano's
longtime use of animal blood to create his artistic imagery. "I felt I
could paint with fluids," Serrano told ARTnews. "They
automatically had content built in."
....vulgar materials, .. potentially controversial .. willfully
provocative
......Guardian art critic Adrian Searle was not impressed in 2001: he
found that Serrano's photos were "far more about being lurid than
anything else... In the end, the show is all surface, and looking for
hidden depths does no good."[2]

Look weenie, a chance to go sup****t your view in person..

IDA eNews: 03-26-08
San Francisco Art Institute Suspends Animal Snuff
Video Exhibit
Public forum scheduled for Monday, March 31st to open
up dialogue
Yesterday, IDA sent an alert
http://ga0.org/indefenseofanimals/notice-description.tcl?newsletter_id=13088814
to our members about a contem****ary "art" exhibit
entitled "Don't Trust Me" consisting of six
televisions displaying video images of six different
animals -- a doe, a goat, a horse, an ox, a pig, and a
sheep -- being bludgeoned to death with a large
sledgehammer. The alert asked concerned people to
contact the president of the San Francisco Art
Institute (SFAI), the installation's sponsor, urging
him to shut it down immediately on the grounds that
animal abuse is not art, but merely a cruel and
self-serving bid for attention.
As a result of the overwhelming response from IDA
members, SFAI announced this morning that they have
suspended the exhibit at the Walter and McBean
Galleries, at least tem****arily
http://www.sfai.edu/page.aspx?page=285&navID=587?ionID=4
The Institute will hold a public forum on Monday,
March 31st at SFAI's campus to hear criticism of the
work. Controversial "artist" Adel Abdessemed will not
be present, but the school's Dean of Academic Affairs,
two art professors, and the exhibit's curator will be.
Thank you to everyone who helped make this happen
by urging SFAI to remove the installation, and
forwarding our alert to people around the country.
IDA founder and president Dr. Elliot Katz commended
SFAI for discontinuing the exhibit, and for holding
the public forum. "The Institute's initial defense
that the animals were going to be killed anyway sends
a terrible message, not only to the public, but to the
next generation of artists," he noted. "Their official
response was at first rather inflexible and defensive.
I am pleased that now they are at least willing to
hear the public's concerns relating to the ethical and
moral ramifications of this exploitive and cruel
exhibit."
What You Can Do:
- If you are in the San Francisco Bay Area, please
attend the public forum and respectfully express your
opinion on this exhibit in person. This is a great
op****tunity to let people know that it is wrong to
hurt or kill animals for "art," and to expand the
argument: If they found the images of death
disturbing, they should realize that all animals
killed for meat suffer terribly, and that going vegan
is an ethical choice that saves lives.
What: Public forum to discuss art and ethics, and
whether killing animals can ever be considered "art."
When: Monday, March 31st at noon Where: San Francisco
Art Institute Main Campus (in the lecture hall), 800
Chestnut Street, San Francisco
http://www.mapquest.com/maps/800+Chestnut+St+San+Francisco+CA+94133-2206/
- If you cannot attend the public forum, please Take
Action
http://ga0.org/campaign/sfai2/wbnd6ds9amwkmk6?
to reaffirm your desire to see this exhibit
closed down once and for all, and to urge SFAI to
implement a policy explicitly prohibiting exhibits for
which animals were intentionally exploited or killed.
