Date: 2001

Region: North America

Subject: Nudity, Sexual/Gender Orientation

Medium: Sculpture


Artist: Vincent Mazo

Confronting Bodies: Stockton Art League

Date of Action: August 2001

Location: Elsie May Goodwin Art Center, Stockton, CA, USA

Description of Artwork: Male nude in bronze

The Incident: Instead of relying on the jury procedure used to determine which art was to be shown at the gallery, one of the members of the Stockton Art League (of which Vincent Mazo was also a member) told the artist that the sculpture was of exceptional quality, but because it was a male nude, versus a female nude, conservative members of the organization did not want to show it.

Results of Incident: The sculpture was not shown at Stockton Art League exhibition
