Whoever hit that lady should be ashamed of him- or herself -- and I hope they catch the person. There are far better ways of voicing one's differing opinion. Resorting to physical violence only empowers and elevates the artist and gallery owner. The violence accomplished nothing other than elevating the gallery owner to the status of a martyr. It also increases the value of the art, which is otherwise worthless crap.

Maybe the gallery owner should NOT have made a statement by putting this piece of crap in the window, shoving it in everyone's face. This is a BS story, glad her gallery failed and I congratulate the the local residents.

Perhaps they already know that, and the whole thing is a setup to advance the story and therefore the artist and his art. I myself am somewhat of an artist and have an art degree. Artists will do bizarre things to try to make a name for themselves and create their own little following. Most of them wind up trashed on drugs trying to extrapolate life's meaning from a stack of soup cans.

Whoever did this should have gone after the artist instead.
