Ken Schram: Freak out! Or, just enjoy the art
SEATTLE -- What is America coming to?
How have we got to the point where the publicly displayed sculpture of a nude woman is passed off as a work of art?
My friends, this is what comes of a society that doesn't understand the puritanical prudency of a burka.
Look at the vulgarity that has erupted in the bucolic village of Burien.
No, wait!
Don't look! Lest the offensive sight of a naked female cause you to pluck out your eyes with one plastic spoon from Ivar's.
Outraged people are demanding to know why a bronze woman with no clothing is on display next door to a new public library.
Oh suffer the poor children who may inadvertently gaze upon the unclothed female form.
Dare I elaborate about the breasts and nether regions on display?
No! I must not!
The squalid nature of this affront to decency prohibits me from doing so.
Good people of the Puget Sound, I implore you: Rise up in righteous indignation and demand this ode to nakedness be removed.
Or...
Simply go to the Burien/Interim Arts Space and enjoy a remarkable expression of beauty.
