Guggenheim Pulls Three Works From Show Following Protests (And Some Threats) From Animal-Rights Activists

“The museum, in Manhattan, made the decision after it had come under unrelenting pressure from animal-rights supporters and critics over works in the exhibition, ‘Art and China After 1989: Theater of the World.'” The museum’s statement said, in part, “Although these works have been exhibited in museums in Asia, Europe and the United States, the Guggenheim regrets that explicit and repeated threats of violence have made our decision necessary.”
