How I feel depends on which sculpture.  

Modern day artists are just wastes of semen and zygotes who only make things to shock and make a point.

While real art is made to be beautiful and uplifting.

Art is not an excuse to be crude or obscene, and to do whatever you want.

Those that say it is deserve to be beaten with an aluminum bat.

Here's the kicker that the story doesn't tell you. It was 1 child that wandered away from the group and stumbled on the statue. The sculpture was not on the tour. It wasn't an obscene piece of art the teacher forced the class to look at. So basicly she got fired because the parents of the kid that did'nt behave did'nt teach their child to do what the teacher told them to do.

Yep.. but it's the same everywhere you go.
In France, there's none of the lewd 'vulgarity' you can find in the US, and yet there's all that nudity in publicity, pharmaceutical in particular.  You'd never find those ads in america.
I might go take some pics of em.

I really didn't see any evidence that a nude person was seen there at the museum. All I read was that there were statues without clothing on..........

Frankly this seems to be a bit of a hyped up situation. I can't see this kind of situation leading to a revocation of tenure, even in a bible belt area.

I have to agree with Ripley on this one. The real obscenity is the killing of people shown on TV and other venues as entertainment rather than the depiction of the human body outside of a pornographic depiction.

I agree, sounds like an overreaction on the part of the parents and the school. However, not many facts were provided. If she took them to the "Hall of S&M" then perhaps she deserves to be fired.

I doubt very much a teacher would take young children to go see the sort of thing you posted. The article mentions the word "nudity" not porn or gross.
Title: naked people at art museums?! NO!? really?!
Post by: moot on September 28, 2006, 11:39:46 AM
It looks like it was something similar to Michaelangelo's nude..  The exhibit was a classical collection, so none of that modern or postmodern trashy BS.   The culprit was most likely something outrageous like a bouguereau (http://images.google.com/images?num=100&q=bouguereau).
You know what.. if nude marble is made to be such a threat to little kids... you'll sow what you reap :)

The article does little to illuminate the issue. It could be that is intentional. There may have been obscenity involved and the writer of the article may have had an agenda which prevented objective reporting. I can only speculate without facts.

Post by: lukster on September 28, 2006, 11:59:13 AM
From what I can find the school board is claiming that the field trip has nothing to do with not renewing this teacher's contract. It is possible that the parent's objection has nothing to do with her termination and she is simply using it to garner public support.

Perhpas more will be revealed as time passes.

Every Texan I know would not support a teacher being fired because some fifth grader saw a nude statue at the Dallas arts Museum. That's why I think there is more to this. As the school board has stated, she was not fired for this reason. I think the teacher is using the incident to keep her job and the original reporter is using it for their own agenda. But hey, everyone knows that Texans are all a bunch of prudes so why spoil the lynching?

So what were their reasons?

It was mentioned earlier that she was a teacher there for many many years.  I would like to know why they let her go, if not for this reason.
