Too rich!

Remember the art showing of a painting that recently got squelched?

Avenged times a thousand.

A portrait of President Bush using monkeys to form his image that was banished from a New York art show last week amid charges of censorship was projected on a giant billboard in Manhattan on Tuesday.

[...]

Animal Magazine, a quarterly arts publication that had organized the month-long show, said anonymous donors had paid for the picture to be posted on a giant digital billboard over the entrance to the Holland Tunnel, used by thousands of commuters traveling between Manhattan and New Jersey.

The original picture will be auctioned on eBay, with part of the proceeds donated to parents of U.S. soldiers wishing to supply their sons and daughters with body armor in Iraq.

[...]

Organizers expect more than 400,000 drivers to see the billboard each day for the next month.

I love it. But I suspect many drivers will not see the chimps and only see the chump. Anyway, I still love it. Kudos to Animal Magazine, the artist and all the donors.
