It’s bananas, as it turns out.
This story echos the US right wing rollback of the arts back in the Reagan/Bush Sr era. Only this time it’s suggestive banana paintings instead of Mapplethorpe’s works. Basically the “obscene” charges are mostly a cover to allow them to cut funding to the arts without being seen as the bad guys.
These Polish finger-wagging censors are trying to re-write history, and can just PiS off.
One banana takes out an entire Government? I like that!
My GF took part in a textile exhibition at the Central Textile Museum Łódź, titled “Za Wolność” / “For the freedom” with this ❀ piece, and girl oh girl, have I never seen a nun leave an exhibition opening faster!
Google it: Nun eating a banana I thought I’d come up empty handed, but apparently Nun’s love bananas as much as everybody else on the planet.
And after:
I’ve freakin duckduckwent it, and yes, I can confirm… on second thought- ah forget it. 'nuff nun done.
Saw this in my feed and wondered if it would pop up at BB. Not disappointed.
