      <![CDATA[Animal Rights abuses notwithstanding (not that they are not important, of course), I wonder why am I not reading any complaints about the artistic quality of Tom Otterness' sculptures. These sculptures are infantile (not "child-like", just plain dumb), superficial, stiff and not worthy of the prominence given to them at the garden.

I'm not defending the slaughtering of animals for food. So the  stream of  information on cows, moody or otherwise, is unnecessary.

With all due respect, the logic of equating a cow in an abattoir to a dog slaughtered on film evades me.<br>
<br>
First, I am unaware that any individual has entered a packing plant, personally dispatched a cow, filmed the activity and then attempted to present his/her creation to the world as "art". On the other hand we know that Otterness shot and killed a dog in cold blood, filmed the deed and, voila,  presented his 1977 masterwork, "Shot Dog Film" to the world..

Otterness was not some 14 year old  high on pot when he performed his despicable act, but a 25 year old adult  who methodically and in cold blood killed an animal to create his self-styled "work of art". Oh yes, 30 years later he half-heartedly "apologized" for the  killing.
