Google AdSense Programme Policies vs A Tiny Painted Vulva

Update: this post lost us our Google Ads. Because of a painted vulva. And a complaining commenter probably. "As stated in our programme policies, AdSense publishers are not permitted to place Google ads on pages with adult or mature content." So Art Boobs is looking for a new sponsor.

"Darling! I Have so Many Times Told You Not to Take Photos of Me All the Time!" by Jaroslaw Kukowski, oil on board, 60x80 cm.

I''ll let fellow blogger Jahsonic defend this painting: "There are a 1001 reasons not to like Jarosław Kukowski , the first one probably that his art is kitsch. But so is Odd Nerdrum’s, John Currin’s, Hajime Sorayama’s and most other new figurative artists of the post-war era. There is only one reason not not to like Kukowski, and that is this Venus."

Buoyant breasts and topographic flesh

Love It or Leave It

Wes Lang. Courtesy of ZieherSmith. Via.

Wes Lang dances through the bone-yard of America’s tattered narrative embracing both the darkness visible in gallows humor and the risky taunting of viewers in the face of their own taboos. Referencing the alternating pattern of American optimism and obliviousness, from the brash self-promotion and electric voice of Walt Whitman to the booze-fueled failure and heartbreak of Willie Nelson, Lang seeks the source of our duplicity by way of the traditions in our perversions and the pungent stink of our proudest moments. Expounding the violence inherent in our sexual, racial and cultural customs and all the passion of our literary, artistic and political legacies, Lang takes subject matter both canonical and vernacular at dead reckoning. In the end, he skirts political perils and pratfalls by exposing the contradictions in damning our distinctly American vision so steeped in assumptions of protection beyond the pale.

"Colourfully painted 1" (2008) by Hubert Schmalix

"Colourfully painted 1" (2008) by Hubert Schmalix. Gouache auf Karton, 50 x 38 cm. Courtesy.

The Austrian-born artist Hubert Schmalix lives in Los Angeles. Raised in an Italian section of Graz, he attended the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. Often grouped with Austria's so-called "Wild Painters" (he was included in Aperto at the 1980 Venice Biennale and "New Art 1983" at London's Tate Gallery), over the years Schmalix has tempered somewhat his expressive ways without losing his pictorial vigor.

Saint Mary's Cathedral (1971) by Pier Luigi Nervi

Saint Mary's Cathedral in San Francisco was designed by architect Pier Luigi Nervi in 1971.

The cathedral's striking design flows from the geometric principle of the hyperbolic paraboloid, in which the structure curves upward in graceful lines from the four comers meeting in a cross.

At 2:00 pm every day, a shadow of what appears to be a large female breast is cast on the Cathedral. This phenomena is affectionately known as the "two o'clock tittie" by students.

Others suggest that St. Mary's needs be viewed from the Southwest in the midmorning. Alamo Square is a good viewing location, and depending on the season, sometime between 9 and 10 in the morning is the appropriate time.

The outline of the breast is believed to resemble the breast of the chrome woman who reclines on so many truckers' mudflaps.

Urban legend has it that the Catholic Church sued the architect over the appearance of the breast, claiming that the appearance of a naked breast on the side of a cathedral somehow mocks the Church, which is reputed for being uptight about sexuality. However, extensive research shows no evidence that the church ever filed suit against Nervi or even threatened to.
