Bad Art

I found this intriguing piece at a little place called the Museum of Bad Art or MOBA. (I have a special place in my heart for the badly drawn horse head. Special but not pretty.) This juxtaposition of beast and beauty , titled "Think Again", was painted by one Richie and is described thus:

"The chilling, matter-of-fact manner in which the subject presents the severed head to us is a poignant reminder of just how numb we have become. The understated violence implicit in the scene speaks volumes on our own desensitization, our society's reflexive use of force, and the artist's inability to deal with the hindquarters of the animal."

Thought provoking.
