"What You see Might Not Be Real," by Chen Wenling depicts the Ponzi schemer Bernie Madoff as a devil, horns and all.
The bull, which represents Wall Street, is farting because in Chinese "放屁" (fang pi) literally means to fart, but in slang means to bluff or lie.
And in the next gallery....
I zoomed in to confirm if the bullhorns were piercing posterior.
Instead, I am subjected to Madoff cake that could feed three wedding parties.
Why?
Powerful art.

Weird art is where imagination runs wild, and rules politely excuse themselves. This community celebrates the bold, the bizarre, the tender, the delightfully unhinged.
If it’s strange, soulful, handmade, and human, it belongs here. All weird art is welcome… as long as it’s not AI-generated.
