Words nearly damn well fail me about this. :rant:

Last year a Costa Rican artist did this to a street dog.

In 2007, Guillermo Vargas Habacuc, a so called artist, took an abandoned dog from the streets, tied him to a very short rope to a wall in an art gallery and left him there to slowly die of hunger and thrist.

 

During several days, the author of such cruelty and the visitors of the gallery of art watched the agony of this animal. Until the dog finally died of famine, surely after a painful, absurd and incomprehensible torture.

 

Sickening?

Well that's not all: the prestigious Centralamerican Biennial of Art decided, incomprehensibly, that this horrible act commited by this guy was art, and Guillermo Vargas Habacuc has been invited to repeat his cruel actions in said biennial on 2008.

If you go to this website there is a petition to try to stop this from happening again. Also links to the previous 'art work'. :rant:

That is unbelievable. Can't believe none of the visitors stopped it even if the artist is totally sick.

Have you got a link Barbara?

I think in the name of 'Art' we should do the same to the artist !!!!!!! :rant:

thats horrible, how on earth can that be classed as art????? theres nothing arty about it, its just pain sick. and i have to say i dont realy think the "artist" is fully to blame. the people who go to see it are just as sick because it wouldnt be happening if there was no one wanting to see it.

they should all be banned from going near animals.

like the old saying goes you fly with the crows you get shot with the crows.

This a link to more news and a petition about this also has email addresses of the bastard 'art' gallery that let this horrendous thing happen and want to do it again

BEWARE Photo's and graphic story

But we need to email and make their lives hell to stop them from doing it again.

Not sure how to access the petition - but email addresses are there

Guillermo Vargas Habacuc has been invited to repeat his cruel actions

I think the so called "artist" should do a self portrait instead and really get into his work
