Dear editor!
I read the article „Giuliani forced into climbdown” yesterday.
In my opinion the row was very sensless. I think art is art. and art should not be forbidden.
You can’t remove a picture? The Mayor Giuliani did exactly the wrong thing.
Because he started this row, everybody knows the picture now.
I was happy to read that Brooklyn museum won this row because I agree with this museum when they say: “We have the right of free speech”.
What I think about shocking art is that every picture can shock. Some more, others less. but some artists exaggerate too much.
Every person has his own way to see and define a picture. I do not think that the “Virgin Mary” is a very shocking picture I also can’t understand why the reaction from Guiliani, but every picture has another effect to a person. I’m not sure what I think about the article but I guess it was sensless.
Yours, Maria
