The Modern Art Museum in Fort Worth is facing accusations of promoting child pornography in a controversial exhibit titled, “Diaries of Home.” Several photographs in the art collection depict children in sexualized poses.
“These images are presented under the guise of art, but in reality, they sexualize children and exploit their innocence,” read a letter signed by dozens of pastors, religious liberty groups and concerned citizens.
The Danbury Institute, a public policy collective of churches and other religious groups, is spearheading the campaign to remove the photographs of the children from the museum’s collection.
“This exhibit should be called what it is: child pornography,” they wrote in a letter to the Modern Museum of Art. Click here to add your name to the letter.
They noted that a museum plaque “shockingly describes the collection as showcasing ‘children naked, moody and in suggestive situations’ to ‘evoke an edgy, dark side of childhood.’” Watch the full report below:
