Art Scene


	Xu Bing and Song Dong at the Burchfield Penney Art Center by Jack Foran
	Photo documentation of a performance art piece in the Burchfield Penney Contemporary Project Space features a pig with tattoos and mannequin, also with tattoos, in pathic pose. The pig can’t resist. He becomes amorous. It starts with some innocent-looking kissing and cuddling, and proceeds from there. To just what consummation isn’t clear, however. In the last frame you see the pig with an enigmatic look, maybe of satisfaction, maybe of frustration.
