this kind of art isn't about aesthetics it's about getting the message to people, it isn't art in actual meaning it's more a political statement.

If it wasn't supposed to be art it wouldn't have been in a gallery. Hey, I'm against torturing prisoners of war but that happens all the time. Maybe I should go find a veteran and cut him up.
