Bush or Chimp?

An acrylic portrait of President Bush led to the closure of a New York art exhibit. Chris Savido's "Bush Monkeys" was part of a 60-piece show at the Chelsea Market. Scheduled to stay up for the month of December, the market's managers shut it down.

From far away, the $3,500 painting "offers a likeness of Bush, but when you get closer you see the image is made up of chimpanzees or monkeys swimming in a marsh." The 23-year-old artist said, "This is much deeper than art. This is fundamental American rights, freedom of speech."

"We had tons of people, like more than 2,000 people show up for the opening on Thursday night. Then this manager saw the piece and the guy just kind of flipped out. 'The show is over. Get this work down or I'm gonna arrest you,' he said. It's been kind of wild," said show organizer Bucky Turco.
