Controversial Painting Showing Donald Trump Nakedness Goes Viral In London


The painting was done by UK artist “Illma Gore” and it was titled ‘make America great again’. When painting, gore imagined what the billionaire republican looked liked without any clothes on, but it didn’t go as
planned, the painting has proved controversial and since then Gore has received hundreds of death threats.  

Speaking to ITV News Gore said she was simply trying to make a point about gender.

I intended to evoke a reaction to evoke a reaction from the audience. I don't think that our genitals or what's in our pants, defines your gender, your power of your status.

It's been unsafe to show the painting in the United States. But the Maddox [gallery in Mayfair, London] has been amazing about it and they took me in straight away.

It's a relief to be able to show it after being censored and taken off social media so much.
