The Week In Arts & Culture: Sumptuous Feasts, Hand Turkeys And Transgender Icons (PHOTOS)
Posted in: Today's ChiliWe hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving and are shaking yourself out of that food coma for the week to come. But before you get out of bed, check out what you missed in the art world this week, from artistic hand turkeys to stunning World War II photos.
This fall has been a rough month for animals in the art world. First, we found out that British bad boy Damien Hirst killed 9,000 butterflies for a questionable installation at the Tate Modern. Then we came across Belgian artist Jan Fabre’s cat-throwing performance video, in which he, well, throws cats up a flight of stairs. This disappointing pair of artsy acts against animals got us thinking… Have artists always been this insensitive to animals’ rights?
