course on the internet hoaxes abound, but this story is somewhat ambiguous. In fact there are sites where the news is not that just be denied, but only muffled ... the author seems to respond to accusations made by various internet signatories of this petition against torture. In his reply he says he simply used this dog called Natividad to demonstrate the profound indifference of the people before the plague of stray dogs and stray dogs in his city, and this has never resulted in any angry reaction in people ...
I say that perhaps the artist was a bit 'too much in his protest. He would probably aware of the minds on an international level with a "simple" but effective exhibition of photographs, perhaps showing the raw side of stray dogs and the deaths of these poor animals. Maybe it was just what the true intent?
This unfortunately we can not know .... it is certain that before bind a poor animal and expose it without dignity and hungry with a bowl of food and water at a distance, so that it is no reach, to make it His real suffering, in an "art gallery" and therefore be called an artist we should think better, in my opinion.
But the dog was already "in very poor condition and would be dead "....
So why not the next time we get a terminally ill in his last hours of agony, perhaps to avoid giving the morphine so we can see death and suffering occur in a "pure", almost "artistic" I would say .... so that terminally ill patients would be dead ...
And then we complain that our society is violent? We fill our mouths with words such as bullying and murder, ... call art and tie a dog (even if only for three hours a day) to see it die before the eyes of all who participate in an exhibition of art, sip their white wine and talking about useless crap philosophy (because none of you did something?) ... while an innocent creature DIES indifference of all, even the same "artist" of this massacre!
think, however, that one day you could be reborn dog or cat and stray too ... ask yourself if you'd like to be treated like that.

Killing a dog for art
Letransfusiòn (in English) shows other ways to support the cause of animals
In 2007, Guillermo Vargas Habacuc, a faux artist, took a street dog, tied him to a short rope to a wall of an art gallery and left him to die slowly of hunger and thirst
For several days, the author of this horrible cruelty and the visitors of this gallery 'art were impassive spectators of the' agony of the poor animal, until he finally died of starvation, having passed through a painful, absurd and incomprehensible ordeal
This is not all: the prestigious Biennale Centroamericana of Art decided, incomprehensibly, that the brutality that had just committed this individual is art, and in this way so Guillermo Vargas Habacuc has been invited to repeat his cruel action in luck Biennale in 2008.
This is the article written about www.ilgiornale.it on October 28, 2007 by Mario Cervi.
I decided to copy and paste the link to it and not just because I am afraid that then disappears from the web and I believe this article should instead be readable by everyone and forever, do not forget that the real animals are humans .... there is really not much to brag about.
Thank you, Mr. Deer for expressing so well my thoughts on this terrible story.
seems that Guillermo Habacuc Vargas, who was born in Costa Rica, enjoy as an artist of considerable stature, at least from its parts. It should be one of the representatives of his country in the Central American Biennial of 2008 in Honduras. As far as I'm concerned, and according to the news that I had, Guillermo Vargas Habacuc is a crook, so it's all bad.
belongs to the trend of challenging that elevate the status of any artistic creation eccentricity and extravagance, it is pleasant or unpleasant. Even those who do not have any sympathy for these rebels, be they painters or graffiti in red to the Trevi Fountain or hanged for Dummies must at least acknowledge them harmless. Do not commit acts of violence against anyone. The quoted Habakkuk hath been guilty instead of a disgrace that has held up to scorn and indignation of those who heard the news. In a suburb of Managua has captured with the help of five kids is where it is then a tip, a meek dog, and broke it exhibited in an art gallery (so to speak) with the inscription "A perro enfermo, callejero, "a street dog sick. The poor animal was tied to a chain, and a few meters away from the horrible Guillermo had placed a bowl of food out of reach.
The Work of Art was monstrous in the exhibition of this suffering and agony. Obviously the animal was denied, along with any medical nutrition. Some visitors to the exhibition came to the 'artist' to ask him to free the dog. But he flatly refused, could not allow his masterpiece was affected by interference of outsiders. Vargas is a crook and probably crazy. Are strongly recommended against it, measures. One of which would be to keep him tied to a chain, no food.
But the most damning aspect of this story is not the sadism of a character in a horror movie. Lies in the indifference, or only mild protest, those who have visited the exhibition. Is inaction of the authorities, the judiciary and police, whose task is to prevent inhuman acts. He is especially hypocrisy with which the mAdc (Museo de Arte y Diseño contemporary) self esteem for his Habacuc Vargas and the lack of any condemnation for his cruelty. The mAdc rejects any intervention, starting with the cancellation dell'Habacuc from the catalog of the Central American Biennial of 2008. Poses as the defender and protector of intellectual and artistic freedom. "A work-even if it is written, debated and debatable in a press should serve as a starting point for different views, and even contrary, however, must never give inspiration to censorship. "
