Glad to live in a country that can express these things through art and public demonstration without being censored or killed. You bet happy 4th of July.

to each their own!

Good for them, the only shame here is the fact that they most likely don't see the irony in the fact that they're showing support for governments/belief systems that would never allow them to do what they're doing.

We have members here like this. If it's anti American, it's good!

They are just a little bit too thick headed to realize the irony Publius

That link is great! Gotta love that Iran submitted "art" to be posted!

Its called an art show. They let everyone in with no censorship. You want to be the art judge now and say what is acceptable under your terms?? How about what these people have to say..... you want to limit their speech too? Talk about thick headed.

Did I say they shouldn't show it?

Seems you are more pissed off about MY FREE SPEECH commenting about this then I am about their free speech showing it. I think it's funny, and a great reminder of what a lot of anti war/anti america people are really about.

Lighten up Francis.

the irony of you jumping down his throat for speaking freely in the same paragraph that you're attacking him for some imagined assault on the free speech of these artists ... it is delicious.

It's wonderful. Look at this piece of artwork.

The type setting is a wonderful match for the words spoken by the wise Ahmadinejad. The two different colors of red to highlight his quotes. Spectacular!!!

I'm glad they left an email on the bottom. I want to see if I can get a poster for my kids room!

I was more referring to pieces like these:

They all show obvious artistic talent, the choice of content is just crazy.

And this one is an excellent design, just again the content is wacky...

Stylerod · 07-06-2007, 05:50 PM

They had the obligatory Che Guevara posters.

But this one didn't make the cut

Roonie · 07-06-2007, 05:52 PM

I completely agree with you on this that the content is horseshit on a lot of the ones that made the camera, but some are very well done artistically. Art is always about pushing the boundaries and getting people to react to it and get involved in it. That is usually the sign of a good artist but if it takes some outlandish content to get the job done then your art skills are lacking.
