Dying Dog as Art?

In 2007, the 'artist' Guillermo Vargas Habacuc, reportedly took a dog from the street, tied him to a rope in an art gallery, and starved him to death.


For several days, the 'artist' and the visitors of the exhibition have watched emotionless the shameful 'masterpiece' based on the dog's agony, until eventually he died.












Does it look like art to you?

But this is not all... the prestigious Visual Arts Biennial of the Central American decided that the 'installation' was actually art, so that Guillermo Vargas Habacuc has been invited to repeat his cruel action for the
biennial of 2008.
