«Asked to design a billboard for the Public Art Fund in New York, we welcomed
the chance to do something that would appeal to a general audience. One Sunday
morning we conducted a ‘weenie count’ at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in
New York, comparing the number of nude males to nude females in the artworks
on display. The results were very ‘revealing.’
The PAF said our design wasn't clear enough (????) and rejected it. We then
rented advertising space on NYC buses and ran it ourselves, until the bus
company canceled our lease, saying that the image, based on Ingres' famous
Odalisque, was too suggestive and that the figure appeared to have more than
a fan in her hand.»
