Reeg & Kelly had nice things to say about you this morning and held up several of the pix.

Provocative. Innovative. Shameless. Count me out.

These exhibits have been closed, pending legal action. It is somehow appropriate that the system is fighting the artists that bring these issues to light, and not the media outlets and figures that fuel the flame.

I'm totally shocked by the closing of these two exhibits (pending legal action). They can be viewed at:

Is it just me, or does this smell like a hoax? All the pictures have clearly been Photoshopped and from what I can tell, the gallery address doesn't exist.

hey micahel, did you get to go the first week it was open? two of my friends said that the work felt like it was trying too hard to be offensive....from what i can see on the websites, i kind of love how outlandish all of it is. it seems like the artist had no quams being offensive...kudos to him for that alone

if you ask me, this whole thing is a shameless publicity plot....

I am not sure if that takes away from the fact that the art work while disturbingly offensive it is also very straight and to the point. we live in a society in which we are all biased....

we judge without knowing we are judging and the media has become as essential part of the system. we are born into a society that has so much messaging attacking us from everywhere we look that we don't even realize it....

we are all being fed information and we just take it without realizing that there a million built in intolerance and choice makers...

this exhibit talks about all that....

i know that the Naomi Gates Gallery has done some crazy things in the past....isn't that the place where they had the crazy naked jesus hung to the cross made of chocolate? I read in the news that the guy afterward shattered the whole thing and ate the pieces...INSANE! and I agree with miss k and michael...its all about publicity....
