Trunkloads of art
You have to scoot over Dorseyland to read about cat and elephant paintings (not paintings of them – the animals do the painting) (sort of), but Dali House tries to catch up with this limping tale of Scottish art critics going gaga for one elephant’s self-portraits.
Dali House is in Thailand, where pachyderms are practically on pedestals, though not for their artistic talents. Here, the saga of one unfortunate beast’s demise earlier this month made the news every day for a week, right up until the residents of the village he’d wandered into in Chanthaburi province dug a hole deep enough to bury him and hoisted his sorry 50-year-old carcass in, amid Buddhist chants and many tears (Nation photo).
