The Art Scene

We certainly don't advocate any of the behavior paraded in this item. Not the basic premise (that Mrs. Clinton has been "assassinated", whatever that means), not the idea that it would be a good idea if it actually happened, and certainly not the idea of the famously depraved New York art world in general.
The gallery's press release:

Art Installation Envisions
?The Assassination of Hillary Clinton?

New York, NY: (February 29, 2008): The Leah Keller Gallery announced today the opening of Yazmany Arboleda?s art installation, ?The Assassination of Hillary Clinton.? The installation explores the figurative, but highly effective attempts by the American populace to assassinate Hillary Rodham Clinton?s reputation during her historic candidacy for president. Reflecting the sentiment that no one is without blame or responsibility, Arboleda shows the extreme effects of a society intent on castrating anyone in power. The installation will be on display through March 30 and is available by appointment only.
...
Due to the highly sensitive and controversial nature of the material presented in YazmanyArboleda?s ?The Assassination of Hillary Clinton? installation, it is being viewed by appointment only.

Culture vultures and those unable to get to New York for an appointment can view the exhibit online here.
Based on this random sample from the web site, yah, we'd agree that you wouldn't want to let just anybody in there.
