WTF?!?!?! Starving a dog is ART?!?! (serious)
When I saw this, I was like WTF?!?!? What is the world coming to? What "group-think" mentality is allowing this??? Why is this even CONSIDERED art? I know art. Art is supposed to elicit a response, but for the love of God, there's gotta be a line SOMEWHERE.

I checked it out on Snopes as well and it seems this did really happen, but the circumstances of how the dog was treated are unclear. There may have been that was allowed to die.

If I saw this, I'd say to heck with the artist. This is cruelty. Here, let me tie YOU up and see how long YOU last as an ART exhibit.

I think they should do the same to this "Artist", that would be poetic, and poetry is art!!

Man, that is cruel. I've always felt bad for these poor dogs too:
They don't look like they're really enjoying themselves as much as the artist wants us to think.

I now believe that hitting an artist in the head with a shovel is art.....and I'm feeling crative.

What?
C'mon, did anyone actually read it? Might, could be, possibly, unsubstantiated, can't be proven, nobody can confirm... is about as meaningless as it gets.
Did anyone take note that the dog was actually in a museum on display? And if you read about the people who supposedly commented on it, it adds several people in the mix as to "knowing" the dog was being starved. It never happened, people

That is sick! The people that walked by and looked at that dog and did nothing are just as sick as the individual that claims to be an artist.
