Brazilian artist Gil Vicente poses in front of a charcoal sketched self-portrait depicting him pointing a gun at former US president George W. Bush during an interview with AFP ahead of the official opening of the Sao Paulo Art Biennial, in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
The artist's nine imaginary scenes depicting him murdering world leaders have become the focus of fierce debate, with the national lawyers' association demanding they be taken down from the walls of the Sao Paulo Art Biennial, which started yesterday. AFP
