Photos: See most controversial artworks of Jacob Zuma that stumbled South Africa
The exit of Jacob Zuma as President of South Africa has looked like a big relieve in the minds of South Africans. South Africans have many times tagged him as a betrayal of Nelson Mandela's legacy.
Below are the five most controversial artworks of Jacob Zuma;
1. AYANDA MABULU’S ZUMA-MANDELA (2017)
The consistently controversial artist almost broke the internet last year with a lewd depiction of Zuma and Mandela having sex.
This was one of the artworks Mabulu erected in an unsolicited installation in Joburg's Sandton Nelson Mandela Square on Wednesday. The installation was removed by the mall's security team and the matter handed over to the police.
2. BRETT MURRAY’S THE SPEAR (2010)
Brett Murray’s now-famous/infamous The Spear depicting Zuma's private parts instigated a great deal of debate. Some people defended it on the grounds of free of speech, while others insisted that it played into stereotypes about black masculinity.
3. AYANDA MABULU’S ZUMA-GUPTA (2016)
Atul Gupta and Jacob Zuma feature in another of Mabulu’s disturbing, self-consciously offensive renderings of a symbolically-loaded sex-act. In Zuma-Gupta, Zuma is poised to lick Gupta’s naked backside.
4. ZAPIRO’S LADY JUSTICE (2008)
This ultra-subversive – but somewhat problematic – depiction of Zuma poised to rape the personification of The Justice System was even more controversial than cartoonist Zapiro’s original showerhead cartoon.
5. ANTON KANNEMEYER’S R IS FOR RESPECT (2015)
An allusion to Murray’s The Spear and the vandalism it provoked, R is for Respect also refers to the former president’s genitalia in Kannemeyer’s characteristically tongue-in-cheek fashion. It features a group of protesters holding up a banner that reads "Respect the President's Penis Now".
