...artist’s desire for answers becomes even more apparent in “Together.” While at first glance, the painting appears to depict a family portrait, a closer look reveals the characters of Abraham, Isaac and a ram. Not only is the ram bound, however, but Isaac is also bound as a sacrifice...
...team-naming today. The introduction of Jacksonville Jews and Marquette Mexicans expansion franchises in any sport wouldn't be well-received-even if they were meant to be complimentary. Such "tributes" are ambiguous, and prompt responses even by well-meaning fans that send mixed messages to the groups they depict...

One previous succés de scandale was to tattoo live pigs with the kind of icons that normally grace the biceps of a Hell's Angel...
