Art defended... by the law!
Henson's press release (which he released through the gallery holding the now-infamous exhibition of his work) sums up beautifully the point I tried to make in my post the other day. This is the extract reported in the SMH yesterday:
"It has been profoundly humbling to witness the depth of support for my work in these past weeks," said Henson.
"It is reassuring to see existing laws, having been rigorously tested, still provide a framework in which debate and expression of ideas can occur." (SMH, June 5)
Indeed.
