If this boy can draw these things and feel proud of them, i say let him keep drawing them,he may turn out to be quite a talented artist.

The Henson issue is being referred to the UNCRC, that kind of things motors along, and will resolve out, along certain lines. The legal issue iswhether the police had an official investigation into

(a) sexual abuse (b) indecent images or (c) child pornography when a major newspaper in Australia published something. That’s the top-line of the complaint to the UN. (a), (b), (c) don’t have to be qualfied with a conviction.

The material has been classified as child pornography on one side of the planet and as wholesome viewing in another part, I’ve never denied that,

So the above is your PG/G culture. That kind of thing would not get bail in London, it would be so over the line, the culprits would get remanded in custody. If you can’t grasp that, your problem is, that you can’t grasp it.

So London, it is child pornography & in Ox it is a PG/G. That raises the notion that it is not white-money art, it just does. If you can’t trade it without legal or criminal restrictions it is not really mainstream art.

I’m just wondering how many more chickens and horses have to die before the hicks in Oz move onto landscape gardening or something.

I’ve been involved in the arts world for decades, and if I could, I’d add ‘being compared to Caravaggio, to the list of charges’.

Because, we all know, if we are being honest, that his corpse or his zombie photo style, is from ‘Silence of the Lambs’. It’s faux cine trash art.

If this is the result of you expressing your frustrations, perhaps you should express yourself more often. Aren’t artists supposed to go through tough times to release their inner feelings?

Lovely work. -Steve

Thanks Aeddan! this one came together surprisingly easily, I’m just sorry it took so long!

Once again, you insidiously work the term “child pornography” in a reference to an instance which has clearly and legally been demonstrated not to be so.Your soapbox clearly has no room for anything other than your biased interpretations of such,and no doubt other,instances of contemperary social phenomena.Whilst I applaud and agree with your stance on child abuses I fear that a tone of dangerous fundamentalism taints your views.You state the UN prohibition Against Child pornography as if it is pertinent to this case,thus implying that this is so, when in fact it is not, a ploy abused time and time again.I think you need to spend some time in reflection on the true definitions of ponography rather than the rabid leanings of those of like-minded repression.I am most interested in your degrees of classification, once again harkening back to classical art mores.

Comment on Bill Henson’s Artworks are Innocent by tazia

I’ve made more money than Bill from the same thing, art, what NAVA and Bill are asking for are the pimping rights, so the idea of agency is out the window if only NAVA and Bill get to do the pimping.

If they have agency, then a group of 13 girls can sack their pimp, be it Bill Henson or whoever, and go into business themselves. What’s a gallery web-site, how’s it different to Bebo or whatever? That’s just posing for the Oz rustics!

I’m from a history of heroin chic, manufactured gender, the latter, means surgery, or even suicide as art, which in the 60s, 70s, and 80s, was as diverse as one needed to go. But, Bill in using kids in his corpse photos, or child erotica, it is too much. But don’t call me a conservative.

The main prob for Bill or NAVA, is that, hick thing, they’re not good enough for New York, and too strange to stay in cow-town.
