I understand that art is a form of expression. I also understand that we may want to limit some of that expression for the simple sake of sanity. Some of these artists had to have been at least a little insane to come up with these creepy statues. Some of these are incredibly offensive but I guess that because it is in the name of art, people let these creepy statues slide.
