Madonna Picture Offends Someone

Police in Norfolk are investigating a complaint about a photograph of Madonna hanging in an art gallery in Norwich.

The picture, part of an exhibit featuring the works of photographer Dave Hogan, depicts the singer posing on a cross and wearing a crown of thorns. A police spokesman said: "We are currently in the process of establishing the facts. In such circumstances we would always try and reach a solution which both upholds the principles of freedom of artistic expression and also prevent any offence being caused."

A similar investigation had to be launched last year, when the gallery displayed an 'artwork' consisting of a banana arranged with two eggs. On that occasion, the display was re-arranged so that the offending groceries could not be seen by passers-by.
