Charles Saatchi, the British patron of modern art, is bound to stir up controversy yet again. His "USA Today" show (wonder what the newpaper thinks of that?) at the Royal Academy will feature a sculpture called Medusa by Terence Koh. The sculpture includes "more than a dozen religious icons of Jesus Christ and the Virgin Mary have been fitted with penises and gathered around a urinal."
Saatchi is quoted as saying of the artist: "Terence Koh's work is as nasty as you like. He has the face of an angel but the soul of a sewer rat".
I wonder what Jesse Helms would say.
