The link I am about to give is very very disturbing but very important. A latin artist finds a homeless dog, ties it up in a art gallery no food or water, and allows it to starve to death a short time later. Amid all of this cruelty, and it's called art! When does art end and cruelty begin?

How come the dog doesn't just chew the rope and free himself?

One should tie that artist on a rope and starve him to death! And all the people who watched and did not help the dog!! That is disturbing and disgusting!

Let's see how you would be if you are sick and starving to death. Plus the fact that this is an art gallery and there are a lot of people. That's not the point. The point is, his death was most likely completely something that did not have to happen had the dog gotten some care. Or the dog did not have to suffer in his final hours of life if he was very sick.

Thanks to all who have signed. Please pass this on as he has been invited to do this once again later on this year. This is a despicable act of man's inhumanity to other creatures.

Astrid and Liz, I totally hear ya! And thank you, Kirsten!

Because it's not a cartoon?

I signed the petition, but couldn't bring myself to look at the article pictures.
I don't believe in Bondi. I don't believe in rugby league. I believe in Yoko, John Lennon, the Lost Weekend and me.

Well, here's another clue for you all, the Walrus was Paul...
I couldn't bear to look at the pictures, either. But I will sign the petition. :(

I agree that charges should be brought against the artist, & I hope that all those who stood by have guilty consciences. I didn't look at the images, & I'm wondering what good, truthfully, will come of signing a petition? But, I guess, if no one complains, no one who can make changes can hear it.

Sherry, I think the purpose of the petition is to show the people who allowed this to happen that this can't go on. This can't be tolerated. Hopefully they will see that a million people can't be wrong but they can and not allow this type of 'art' to happen ever again.

Once again, thank you all for signing the petition. Yes, the images are disturbing and I don't blame anyone for not wanting to see it. There is even videos posted on youtube with the same pictures. It's quite a sight to read the comments and to see the petition advertised on the videos. Heartwarming at such a heartwrenching story.

Every single person who walked past that "exhibit" could have let the dog go! How would that be for an artistic statement?

They're all implicated.
