Fork sculpture artist files complaint with ACLU over censorship in San Antonio

July 9, 2009 · 1 Comment

Mosaic Wine Group has learned that San Antonio artist Gilbert Duran has filed a complaint with the American Civil Liberties Union after the Stone Oak Property Owners Association forced restaurateur Damien Watel to build a wall blocking Duran’s Fork sculpture from view.

The POA had claimed that the Fork was an authorized form of advertisement.

Watel and Duran contended that it was a work of art but were forced, nonetheless, on legal grounds to conceal the work from view from the street.

The complaint was reported today on the website of the San Antonio Express News, MySanAntonio.com.
