To shopgirl, --"if it was a Chinese artist who have done that. everybody would slam him or her". I'd be more interested in everybody's reaction if it were Chinese who dropped bombs and killed some dozens of innocent civilians in Afghan lately.

Maybe it was a copyright issue? Anyway, Andy Warhol did this shit decades ago. Wim should work on his own style rather than rehash someone else's groundbreaking ideas. How about a painting of Mao holding a Nike shoe? Or Lei Feng with a Golden Arches? Yawn...

Collectors who've traveled to China to see the pigs are now dissapointed? Perhaps they can visit the bile farms just to get the taste on the missed animal cruelty.

Hopefully the ban just brings it more publicity, as expected. This is one of the best comments on contemporary Chinese society I've seen...

Good , at least Shanghai has shown itself to be a leading city in China, people are more aware of animal cruelty.
