Art In Spain !!!!!

Target:
http://www.petitiononline.com/13031953/petition.html
Sponsored by: 

In 2007, Guillermo Vargas Habacuc, supposedly an artist, took up an abandoned dog in the street, attached it with a very short string to the wall of an art gallery and let it slowly die of hunger and thirst.

During several days, the author of this cruelty, just like the visitors of the art gallery, observed impassively the anguish of the poor animal until its death by inanition after having gone through a painful, absurd and incomprehensible martyrdom.

This is not all: the prestigious Centroamerican Art Biennal decided, in an incomprehensible way, that the brutality of this individual was "art" and consequently, Guillermo Vargas Habacuc was invited to repeat the cruelty in the 2008 version of the event.

LET US PREVENT IT!

Please sign this petition at : http://www.petitiononline.com/13031953/petition.html  <http://www.petitiononline.com/13031953/petition.html> .

It will take you just 10 seconds.

Please forward this information to all your contacts so that we can, together, try to avoid that another innocent animal suffers this cruelty from that "human being".


P.S.: If you wish to see more pictures of this poor animal, you will find them on Google.

ANIMAL TORTURE AND BRUTALITY IS NOT ART. THIS SHOULD BE PREVENTED AT ALL COST. THE 'ARTIST' SHOULD BE PUNISHED.

art should be beatiful not the atrocity I*ve just saw, I love animals specially dogs ,for me my dog is my beloved son, I wish that the artist suffers the same faith that he cast on Navidad. Some times I do think that MEN are more animals than the real animals.

How much sense would it make to have a person starve in an exhibit to demonstrate the plight of impoverished nations? If Mr Habacuc is truely dedicated to the cause of altuism why not starve himself to make the point?

Guillermo Vargas Habacuc an artist? He is nowhere close to being an artist. He deserves that slow death...

The cowards hide behind the word art and do such sickening things as this. I wish they were brave enough to step in my back yard and try it.

I've never heard anything so cruel in my life! Guillermo Vargas Habacuc, if your so desperate to grab the audiences attention and get a concept across YOU SIT THERE AND STARVE don't sacrifice something HUMANS value. We see poverty everyday, hear about abuse, the last thing anyone needs is a stupid work to portray yet another brutal attack of just this. Not only is this work sickening its so morally incorrect.

It is absolutely disgusting that this happened, even more so in a public area!!! Everyone who went to that exhibition should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves because they are heartless and I only wish that they suffer in their future, that they experience pain, pain for no reason, for participating in such an atrocious act. How any person would be able to place the name of 'art' on this is not only disturbing, it makes me wonder what kind of deranged people live amongst us. To the artist, I can only imagine that your original art work is so terrible, so untalented, so uncreative that you have to cross a 'barrier', be seen, create controversy, torture and kill a harmless animal just to be noticed. Art is in no way defined by such acts. Art is something beautiful or amazing or mysterious. It is in no way torturing a dog.

In all my 57 years of travelling many parts of the world, I have never been so discgusted in all my life. Perhaps another artist would like to take this despicable man, strip him and leave him on a leash to die in the so called name of art!!!!
