I don't understand..
This is the artwork that was covered in a burka at the Saatchi Gallery in London, UK Shame to see this kind of capitulation I think it is both beautiful and poignant https://amp.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2019/may/05/saatchi-covers-up-artworks-after-complaints-by-muslim-visitors …pic.twitter.com/3UwdcQqZ7I

The artwork sparked the 'debate.' Covering it ended it.
