There are so many images and messages that the media sends out about women , race and stereotypes , that should be challenged, protested against that never do or even get mentionned. The hypocrisy of these these situations drive me crazy...A woman artist's work exhibited in one of the most visited places in NYC should just be applauded ! Art is supposed to be about one's personal expression and vision, in essence it's personal.Therefore as we are free to agree or disagree it's her vision, and it should have the right to exist.
