When a statue of two deer having sex in the missionary position graced the Herron School of Art’s campus in Indianapolis in the summer of 2005, the public was a little distraught to say the least.
After all, the statue was originally placed in front of the campus where everyone — including small children — could easily gander at the bronze piece.
The sculpture, entitled “Trophy,” was crafted by Wim Delvoye, a Belgian artist with a unique approach to art. Some of his other work includes live, tattooed pigs and X-rays of humans in sexual positions (a spooky take on Kama Sutra?).
