Re: More Dubai stupidness
It could be argued however that the choice of models on the T shirts was to titilate and increase sales -albeit for an extremely worthy cause.
Obviously not looking for a fight as being the quiet unassuming type and always for flight over fight,I'd say the real reason the authorities in DXB found it offensive is becos the designer is a homosexual Jewish person (allegedly).
If a depiction of semi/near nudity is regarded as offensive then I would think the object d'artes in the Guggenhiem & Louvre, Abu Dhabi are going to be rather limited.Doesn't auger well for preRaphaelites,Titians or Botticellis
(no pun intended)
