Child Abuse, Depravity and Perversion in Modern Art

The wider world discovered some of the nefarious activities of our governing class when Wikileaks published the emails of John Podesta, who was at that time manager of Hillary Clinton’s Presidential campaign.  Internet sleuths investigated the very real possibility that a child sex trafficking ring exists in the U.S. capital involving people close to John Podesta or even Podesta himself.  Also explored was the fact that some of those that govern us participate in occult ritual, raising the possibility that children are victims of horrifying ritual abuse at their hands.

One email in particular mentions a little-known practice named Spirit Cooking.  The sender was performance artist Marina Abramovic, who would presumably lead the event.  She sent it to John’s brother, D.C. lobbyist Tony Podesta, who then forwarded an invitation to John.

Email mentioning Spirit Cooking

Much has already been written about Spirit Cooking.  A quick Internet search will yield many hits.  I won’t duplicate the efforts of others, but I must mention that Spirit Cooking is a bloody ritual steeped in Satanism and the occult.

Tony and Heather Podesta

This connection between artist Marina Abramovic and Tony Podesta, who is an avid modern art collector, sparked an investigation into the underbelly of the art world. Much was found that is of grave concern to moral, right-thinking people.

In 2010-2011, the National Museum of Women in the Arts (archived) in Washington, D.C. exhibited photography and artworks from the collection of Tony and Heather Podesta, then married.  The exhibit featured modern female artists such as Catherine Yass, Hellen Van Meene, Justine Kurland and Margi Geerlinks.

Catherine Yass

I believe that “Catherine Yass’ eerie, almost phosphorescent photographs or public urinals” contains a typo and should be “photographs of public urinals” like the repellent example below.  I’m flabbergasted that anyone would collect and display this fulsome piece, but the Podestas did.

Catherine Yass’ biography indicates that she received a commission from Artangel in 2008.  Artangel is a U.K. based organization that funds mainly large-scale and site specific artworks.

Roger Took

Artangel was founded by a British art curator and historian named Roger Took.  He was convicted in 2008 of molesting his two step-granddaughters, ages 9 and 11, and possessing child pornography, some depicting children being tortured or penetrated, including by animals.  His computer contained logs of Took participating in pedophile chat rooms where he boasted of performing the most vicious rape and torture of young girls.  Roger Took was released on parole three years later and he took his own life a short time thereafter.  It must be noted that Took’s art world and high-society friends and colleauges tried to give him cover during his trial.  Many wrote character reference letters to the judge requesting lenience in sentencing.  As Charlotte Metcalf wrote in the above linked article, “Ultimately it was precisely Took’s respectability that enabled him to pursue his lusts for so long.”

Hellen Van Meene

The announcement of the exhibition of the Podesta collection mentions, “Hellen Van Meene’s stylistically lower-key series of adolescent girls wearing (intentionally) ill-fitting clothes.”  I don’t know what specific Hellen Van Meene pieces the Podestas owned, but below are some examples of her work.  Many more examples may be viewed here.

I added the black bar to the top-right photograph.  Note the forlorn looks on the girls’ faces.  These young girls look genuinely traumatized.

Not satisfied with images of child abuse, Hellen Van Meene also produced images of animal abuse.

Margi Geerlinks

The announcement of the exhibition of the Podesta collection mentions, “Margi Geerlinks’ image of an upside-down model with ridiculously large lips.”  I cannot find this particular piece, but other examples of Margi Geerlinks’ work are shown below.

This is considered art, but really it’s borderline criminal child pornography.  You or I would rightly be subject to prosecution if we produced these images, but we’re not “artists.”

Justine Kurland

The Podestas exhibited works of Justine Kurland at National Museum of Women in the Arts.  The exhibition notice does not mention what pieces were displayed, but some examples of her work are shown below.

If Margi Geerlink’s photos are borderline child pornography, these Justine Kurland photographs have crossed the line.  Images such as this should be illegal to produce, possess or sell, but given the label “art” they somehow become licit.

Pilar Albarracín

A 2011 exhibition of works from the Podesta collection at American University in Washington D.C. included pieces by Spanish artist Pilar Albarracín.  I again don’t know which specific pieces were shown, but below are some examples of her work.  These images evoke occult blood ritual and Spirit Cooking.

Conclusion

Artists create child pornography and openly sell it with huge price tags by labeling it “art”.  The rich can legally trade child porn.  Our so-called “elite” in government, business, media and culture collect pedophilic art because it appeals to them and their lifestyles.  For some of them that lifestyle includes the horrifying acts of child sexual and occult ritual abuse.
