Ken Schram: Freak out! Or, just enjoy the art
By Ken Schram
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. Have something to say to Ken? Login or signup below to post a comment.
