Mindless Cruelty

CatFang · Mindless Cruelty

I am just so upset about this.

I repost here from Tony Lee's live journal:

"In 2007, the 'artist' Guillermo Vargas Habacuc, took a dog from the street, tied him to a rope in an art gallery, and starved him to death. For several days, the 'artist' and the visitors of the exhibition have watched emotionless the shameful 'masterpiece' based on the dog's agony, until eventually he died.

But this is not all... the prestigious Visual Arts Biennial of Central America decided that the 'installation' was actually art, so that Guillermo Vargas Habacuc has been invited to repeat his cruel action for the biennial of 2008.

It takes a second to help put a stop to animal abuse. Sign the petition to stop this asshole by going to http://www.petitiononline.com/ea6gk/petition.html"

EDIT: Read Spangle Kitten's post below. I hope to god this is true..."

I just cannot understand how someone could do this

I hope someone ties him to a wall and watches him starve to death

Personally i think (and i am not going to refer to it as an artist or even a human for that matter) Guillermo Vargas Habacuc should be tied up naked in a gallery, left to starve, all the while being filmed in real time, in order to create a film which will be speeded up to illustrate what happens to a sick motherfucker when it is deprived of food and water to see how long it takes it to die.
and all NOT in the name of art.
