'''The Incident:''' Eleven Eleven opened a 15-artist exhibit titled | '''The Incident:''' Eleven Eleven opened a 15-artist exhibit titled ''Not the Knitting You Know'' in June, 2005. Sung's nude figures' exposed privates triggered complaints from employees at the law firm who had to cross the lobby, and thus through the exhibition, each day for work. The firm was concerned about the comfort of its employees, and any clients and visitors who may enter the building and assume the firm sponsored the sculptures. The complaints were brought to the attention of Binnie Fry, the curator of the exhibit, who tried to find an alternative to removing the work. <P> | ||
