Piglets left to starve as part of a controversial "art" exhibition in Denmark have been stolen :marseyclapping: :marseypiglove::marseypiglove::marseypiglove::marseypiglove::marseypiglove::marseypiglove::marseypiglove::marseypiglove::marseypiglove:

Chilean-born Marco Evaristti said he had been aiming to raise awareness of the suffering caused by mass meat production with his art installation that opened last week in Copenhagen. The piglets were being denied food and water and would have been allowed to starve to death.

Another of this "artist's" exhibits put goldfish in individual blenders and encouraged people to blend them, which they did. If the point is to draw attention to animal cruelty, there are ways to do so that don't involve literally torturing animals.

The police had to come out and make them unplug the blenders after complaints. It would have been really easy to use non-functional blenders, instead of functional, plugged in blenders.


So a mean artist said he was going to starve some pigs but then his own friend and some activists free the pigs. You wouldn't know the activists, they go to a different school.

And now the mean old artist reconsidered and is glad the pigs get to have a good life.

And the art is called "So now you care" which only makes sense if people do steal the pigs. Because the whole thing was obviously always the plan.

Y'all got hoodwinked. You're the art.


I fricking hate rich perverts who masquerade their fetishism/sadism/libertarianism as "performance/experimental/protest art" so much :marseyitsallsotiresome: !eurochads

>I care about animals so much, I'm gonna kill them for art.

I was very disappointed when Caspar told me on Tuesday that he was involved in the theft," said Evaristti, who claimed to have received hate mail.

"But then I thought about it for a few hours and realized that at least this way the piglets would have a happy life," he added.

He had to think about it for a few hours before coming to that big brain conclusion.

"I got a lot of hate messages from around the world — I think people don't get that my art is about animals rights," Evaristti said.
