Melbourne artist Victoria Larielle is set to exhibit nude pictures of 11 year old children to protest the censorship of Sydney artist Bill Henson, who is being investigated and the children interviewed, after a police raid recovered 20 odd pictures of nude 12 and 13 year old girls.
Larielle says...
Quote:
She was inspired to do so following the furore surrounding Henson's now notorious exhibition from which NSW police last month seized 20 photographs of a naked adolescent girl and boy.
"I felt really upset that Bill has been persecuted so much by the government and Australian people that don't understand art, perhaps," she said.

Seriously....c'mon, its child porn no matter how you label it, and *maybe* 10% of the people who visit the exhibition will *see the intent of the artist to capture the vulnerability and fragility, not just of young people, but of everyone"...the rest will be fucking perverts.
