ANC goes to court over Zuma’s

The ANC vowed on Thursday to go to court to get a painting of President Jacob Zuma with his genitals hanging out, removed from a Johannesburg gallery. But News24 and City Press still have photograph of a painting depicting President Jacob Zuma with his penis hanging out of his pants from its websites despite a threat of court action by the ANC, the newspaper said on Friday.

The 1.85m-high acrylic on canvas painting titled The Spear is part of Murray's Hail to the Thief II exhibition at the gallery.

It is part of a body of satirical work which is a sequel to his 2010 exhibition Hail to the Thief.

A biography of Murray handed out by the gallery shows how Murray's work continues his forthright attacks on abuses of power

Murray is Cape Town-based artist whose work is to be found in a number of South African and international galleries.
