yawn.
Not sure if you noticed that this piece is "inspired?" by Damien Hirst's
Shark. Damien is an artist who displays boxes of animals preserved in formaldehyde.
So i wonder if this a critique of shock value in art...
Or if this piece is weaker because it still uses the shock value formula...
correction: is a critique
Correction regarding the title of Damien Hirst's piece: It is not called shark, the correct title of the piece is "The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living".
Yes, he was into drugs at the time.
I have yet to find an article providing a decent explanation of David Cerny's intentions...
Si lo ven que viene palo al Tiburón...
Raquel. precisamente por eso envie los enlaces de la exhibicion de "Sensation".
bah.
David Cerny decided to make the sculpture of Saddam Hussein after he witnessed the aftermath of the Iraqi dictator's reign during a week-long stay in Baghdad. While he points out that there are many other more shocking sculptures on show around the world, he does not object to Mayor Landuyt's decision.
"I don't think that a wave of censorship has hit us but what is worrying is that it is now affecting the everyday lives of the ordinary citizens of this continent."
David Cerny drew inspiration from British artist Damien Hirst, whose tiger shark in a tank was awarded the prestigious Turner prize in 1991. Following the banning in Middelkerke, the Czech artist's sculpture will most likely be exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in the nearby city of Oostende - a place that even Mayor Landuyt agrees is more suitable for controversial art.
