Art Appreciation
A couple attending an art exhibition at the National Gallery were
staring at a portrait that had them totally confused. The painting depicted
three black men totally naked, sitting on a park bench. Two of
the men had black penises, but the one seated in the middle had a pink
penis.
The curator of the gallery realized the confused couple were having
trouble interpreting the painting and offered his assessment. He went
on and on for nearly half an hour explaining how it depicted the sexual
emasculation of African-Americans in a predominantly white, patriarchal
society. "In fact", he pointed out, "some serious critics believe that the
pink penis also reflects the cultural and sociological oppression
of gay men in a contemporary society".
After the curator left, an Irish man approached the couple and said,
"Would you like to know what the painting is really about?"
"Now why would you claim to be more of an
expert than the curator of the Gallery?" asked the couple.
"Because I'm the guy who painted it," he replied. "In fact, there
is no African-American representation at all. They're just three Irish
coal-miners. The guy in the middle went home for lunch."
