Mandela painting controversy
Time:2010-08-03
Time:2010-08-03
A painting that depicts a dead Nelson Mandela undergoing an autopsy provoked outrage Saturday in South Africa, but the artist who created the work has said it is a tribute to the iconic leader, AFP reported. The work by local artist Yuill Damaso has drawn outrage from South Africa's ruling African National Congress. "It is in bad taste, disrespectful, and it is an insult and an affront to the values of our society," the party said in a statement. But Damaso said he meant no disrespect to South Africa's first black president.
