This is an invitation to boicot the the work of a costa rican artist. This artist commited an act of torture that has no place in this supposedly "civilized" world nor in art.
En el año 2007, Guillermo Vargas Habacuc, un supuesto artista, tomó a un perro abandonado de la calle, lo ató a una cuerda cortísima en la pared de una galería de arte y lo dejó allí para que muriera lentamente de hambre y sed.
In 2007, Guillermo Vargas Habacuc, a so called artist, took an abandoned dog from the streets, tied him to a very short rope to a wall in an art gallery and left him there to slowly die of hunger and thrist.
Durante varios días, el autor de semejante crueldad y los visitantes de la galería de arte presenciaron impasibles la agonía del pobre animal. Hasta que finalmente murió de inanición, seguramente tras haber pasado por un doloroso, absurdo e incomprensible calvario.
During several days, the author of such cruelty and the visitors of the gallery of art watched the agony of this animal. Until the dog finally died of famine, surely after a painful, absurd and incomprehensible torture.
¿Te parece fuerte? Pues eso no es todo: la prestigiosa Bienal Centroamericana de Arte decidió, incomprensiblemente, que la salvajada que acababa de cometer este sujeto era arte, y Guillermo Vargas Habacuc ha sido invitado a repetir su cruel acción en dicha Bienal en 2008.
Sickening? Well that's not all: the prestigious Centralamerican Biennial of Art decided, incomprehensibly, that this horrible act commited by this guy was art, and Guillermo Vargas Habacuc has been invited to repeat his cruel actions in said biennial on 2008.

This man isn't an artist, he's a psychopath hiding under the name of art. There is a line drawn when it comes to Free Speech and Art and the line was definitely drawn here. If this isn't stopped what happens next? killing children in the name of art?

This is not art, nor is this man an artist. Real artists treat living things with respect, not cruelty. No matter what the artistic concept is, it is wrong to present it in this fashion. And for the gallery to condone such an exhibit...shame on them. Whoever funds this gallery should think twice about continuing their support.

Vargas, 32, said he wanted to test the public's reaction, and insisted none of the exhibition visitors intervened to stop the animal's suffering. He refused to say whether the animal had survived the show, but said he had received dozens of death threats.

This is insane to call this ART. I am an artist and most artists I know would never even conceive of doing or naming something like this as an act of artistic talent. It is torturing an animal, plain & simple. This makes me sick that this artist is now being "celebrated" for murdering a defenseless animal. How cruel can someone be!! You're not an artist, you are an abusive, ignorant human being. INTOLERABLE!!!

What the hell is wrong with people? I'm sickening and saddened that this not only was allowed to happen, but that people paraded by and looked at this dying dog. This has to be the ultimate display of Ignorance and Apathy - I don't know and I don't care. WAKE UP PEOPLE!

There is no excuse or justification for what this artist, the gallery organizers and the viewers allowed to happen to this dog. If it was 'going to die anyway' someone should have euthanized it in a humane way. Please ban this artist and others that would do such a thing in the name of ART!!

Disgusting, I wonder if he would feel the same way if we tied him up and let him starve. Or perhaps we should be more humane and just shoot him.

Que clase te tipejo es este, que no tiene ni idea de lo que es ARTE, le queda muy grande esta palabra...por que no hace lo contrario, busca un pobre perro desnutrido, ya con heridas por el roze de lo que queda de piel y los huesos, lo cuida, lo alimenta, lo cura, y le va tomando fotos del proceso... para demostrar la belleza de lo que el alma humana puede crear, fin ultimo del ARTE, pero no, este imbesil no tiene suficiente cerebro, ni alma, un ser hueco y egocentrico, vacio, balurdo y sadico!!! AL IGUAL QUE CUALQUIER IDIOTA TRASTORNADO CON DINERO QUE LO APOYA EN SUS EXPOSICIONES

Anyone who want to do such a cruel thing to a poor harmless creature should be deheaded and then left to rot just like the dog that he did that to; this man is not sane. THIS NEEDS TO BE STOPPED!
