Artout members are stirring controversy again. This time Eric Pougeau’s work was labeled "disgusting" by France’s extreme-right National Front Deputy Francoise Grolet. Grolet referred to Pougeau's work exposed in the city of Metz, in a group show “Unfamily” and demanded the regional contemporary art center to remove Eric's pieces. We express our complete and unconditional solidarity and support for Eric Pougeau and fully condemn any attempt to impose artistic censorship and limit the freedom of expression by the self-appointed guardians of public morals. The days of "Degenerate Art" and its exhibitors had long gone.
