Andrew Bolt on Art:

“Surely we should judge the pictures then (ie.Art), not so much by the intention of the artist but by the effect on their audience. .. art is defined by its audience, art can’t be contained in galleries, art is best judged by its effects, and artists are fellow citizens, with more influence than most in creating the culture in which many of us are trying to raise our own daughters in safety and respect. .. This is no time for the arts mafia to shriek that, on second thoughts, art is theirs alone – to be defined only by them, viewed only by them, felt only by them, policed only by them. If they want to defend Henson, there is only one morally admirable way to do so: to argue that the benefits of letting an artist show naked girls aroused to their new sexuality causes more good than harm, whether to the models or to other girls who’ll be watched with newly aroused eyes. “
