First of all, here below is my answer to a mail I received from a person who was shocked by my illustration "God is Love - Use Condoms" :

What you say about the importance of Jesus in your life is really moving and I respect it totally. I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings. I'm not far from thinking the same about this great half God, half man creature.

But I really think you didn't get the real meaning of my illustration.

Not everybody is as close to Jesus as you are. In our modern times and societies, Jesus often remains an "abstract concept". In this specific illustration, my aim was to "humanize" Jesus.

If Jesus had been alive now, don't you think he would have praised condoms' use? I think he would have done so. Because, condoms save life and wearing/using them is a proof of mutual respect (when there are potential risks in a sexual relation).

In the context of what the Pope said during his trip to Africa, I could only depict God or Jesus as they are the highest level before the Pope in the Roman Catholic Church hierarchy.

Like you, I believe Jesus is somehow alive and among us. Many people are just too blind to see him.

As an artist, I'm not supposed not to cross sacred red lines, may they be political or religious ones, I'm supposed to be a reflection of the society and the world we live in.

The Headache of Censorship
.
By CapnJon
.

As some of you may know by now, Ben Heine was banned from Deviant art. However, this was my firsthand experience with something that I consider to be both distasteful and at the same time somewhat necessary. The issue I am concerned about is Censorship. Personally, I am a big fan of Ben's artwork, and I love how it is somewhat more than ordinary art in that his works carry a meaning. So naturally I was surprised to find that his submission was deleted from Deviant Art, and after resubmitting it, the promptness in which he was banned.

Ben and myself have been in communication, so I present you his side of the story, and I quote,

"Actually, I think I uploaded the Christ/Condom illustration about 4 times, they deleted it every time with a note saying that the decision had been taken by a DA admin.

I then realized that they closed my account and that it would last 7 days. So I sent them a bunch of crazy emails to show my anger and frustration... A few minutes after I sent these emails, my page was permanently banned, without warnings.

I wish I could come back, because DA offers a great visibility for us artists/activists but I'm not sure that it will be possible. We'll see." And indeed I suppose we will.

However, during our communications with each other, I also was talking with administrators and learning about the process of being banned. I tried to learn what I could, and from what I understand, (forgive me if I am mistaken, as I'm quite new to this site) an administrator can ban anyone they want to, as long as they get a report in regards to the artists in questions artwork. Having not known this information, I have to say that I'm a bit taken aback.

Whenever artwork is hidden, I usually think it is because it lacks serious artistic merit. For example, you shouldn't (nor do I) expect blatant pornography on this website, and I commend our administrators for that. However, there have been some exceptions to this, such as Ben's work. The intention of the piece in question was to cause a stir about a comment the pope made about condoms and their use. Personally I was offended at what the pope said, so I welcomed Ben's submission and indeed had a good laugh at it. But further analysis of the piece shows that it also brings Jesus Christ into a more human aspect, and while it is both quite amusing to look at a glance, it also was much, much deeper. So when I learned it was deleted, I was shocked. At first I thought "why would they delete such an important and relevant piece of artwork? Ben had followed correct procedures, he has done no wrong. Why would this happen?"

Then, I came to realize something. While I am not only in awe of how the administrators maintain the site, I also learned that they are a bit biased. Bias is unavoidable, so I do not want to blast administrators for having their own beliefs, merely that they wield a position of much greater power than the rest of us Deviants, and this inherent bias causes an issue with something: censorship. No matter how good the administrator, I feel as though they cannot avoid this issue, and the issues that censoring an artist causes. First off, when an artist of note is censored, the community goes into an uproar. After all, who wants to see someone they not only look up to but aspire to be like being censored. It is like swatting a beehive with a baseball bat, the end result is a painful mess. However, this also brings to point artists who aren't big that are censored. As you may know, Deviant art is a massive website, and that is why I joined. It's a great way to market oneself and make a name in the creative world. But when an artist is censored, it is essentially cutting them off from communication with millions of other users here on this website. Then, there comes the petitions, voter polls, personal notes (some not worded the nicest mind you) and emails.

Putting myself in an administrators shoes, this becomes a living nightmare. Not only these petitions, but spammers, and the artists who are marketing art that is not their own, and those who make little of artistic merit are still out there on Deviant Art, and I have to ask myself, "How do the administrators do it? It's enough to drive a person insane!"

What Is DeviantArt Afraid Of?

.
By David Baldinger
.

My friend, the artist/journalist Ben Heine from Belgium, recently posted an image to his DevianArt page. According to Ben in a post to the Don Quichotte Cartoon Committee Yahoo group:
.
Hello DQ members, as I expected it, my illustration "God is Love - Use Condoms" has been deleted and censored by DeviantArt. So I uploaded it again with a "mature content" filter. It was deleted again! A few hours later, I was banned permanently...
.
See what DeviantArt is, it allows huge collections of images with genitals everywhere but not a little drawing defying the Establishment... I find this pitiful. It seems that political art doesn't have its place on this "Big Brother" site. How does DA dare to call itself "Deviant" then?!
.
Anyway, I send this mail to suggest you to not open an account on DeviantArt as something like that could happen to you too. Ok, this is a shocking cartoon, but hey, it will never be as shocking as what the Pope said in his plane to Africa...
.
If you support individual freedom of expression, I beg you to post this image on your site, download it in high resolution, print it, etc, so that it can be seen by more people,
.
thanks,

Ben

It is well know to many of us who produce art in support of Palestinians that members of the DeviantArt community selectively attack such works as ‘anti-Semitic’ to have them censored and removed by the DeviantArt administration. Generally, we have been able to counter these attacks by Zionists by simply designating our works as ‘mature due to sensitive subject’ labels. This makes the removal of Ben’s work all the more baffling.

As Ben stated, he even labeled his art as ‘mature’ only to find it still removed. Shame on you DeviantArt! Simple searching of the DeviantArt site will uncover many images of male and female nudity with questionable or obvious lack of artistic merit. I’ve seen some photographs that wouldn’t even reach the level of bad pornography of the amateur kind.

Ben’s censored image is not questionable in any way by a rational mind. His statement is obvious concerning the Catholic Pope’s recent ridiculous statements about condom use in Africa. Unfortunately, the Pope has every right to make dangerous and misleading statements but it is also an artist’s right to respond.

DeviantArt’s actions in several areas like ‘sensitivity’ to Zionist complaints and the type of blatant censorship against Ben should make us all reconsider our association with the DeviantArt site. Maybe we should leave DeviantArt to bad Goth photography and horribly amateur, anime doodlers.

* As I was preparing the hyperlinks for this post, I became aware that Ben Heine’s DeviantArt page is empty due to “This person has been banned from deviantART permanently.”

This action gives me one more reason to delete my own account. I believe it is time to create a site of my own that will showcase editorial art that terrifies the main stream media.

Dear Deviantart People
.
By Juan E. Drault
.

I found your ban as offensive as Ben´s drawing "God is Love - Use Condoms" that you found offensive.

Browsing your site I found many images that I found shocking but that could be considered as great pieces of art by other persons besides me. That´s the essence of art. To make you think, to make you adhere or reject, but that´s a freedom act that I can take when I see the artists' creations.

But if you decide for us, and you throw away not only the illustration but the whole gallery of Ben Heine that I enjoyed very much, then I found your action unacceptable. No way that you can justify yourself by using your Service Terms, and say "he accepted those terms and that´s the end of the conversation", your Service Terms actually allow you to ban whatever and whoever you want: "obscene, offensive, blasphemous, pornographic, unlawful, threatening, menacing, abusive, harmful, an invasion of privacy or publicity rights, defamatory, libelous, vulgar, illegal or otherwise objectionable;"

Using these terms, and based on your decision for ben, many other images on DeviantArt with God or Jesus would then be violating these Service Terms, like for instance "God is dj".

And if you keep looking you will find a shocking poem from Nekotal at http://nekotal.deviantart.com/art/god-razor-17590904. Below this poem, you will find a commenter saying "it's scary" just beside another user's comment saying "it's beautiful". So, that´s my point. That´s subjectivity, and that´s a freedom act. That´s what art produces.

I believe that this is wrong to claim to be able to define what kind of art is or isn't healthy or acceptable. Banning users like Ben based on your subjectivity is nothing else than a violent act.

I know Ben, and he is constantly defending human rights, defending life, and that´s why I invited him to support the World March for Peace and Nonviolence, and he immediately accepted, he is there in the list beside many other personalities. He is a very valuable person, committed with actions for a better world. "God is Love - Use Condoms" intends to defend the life of Africans that are dying of AIDS, tons of them, and hundred of organizations are trying since many years to help teenagers to understand the HIV risk and to make them use condoms, but the Pope in a violent act of ignorance just imposed his dogmatic vision. Your action is somehow the very same, a subjective vision of what is good and what is evil.

I ask you to restore Ben´s account, and I suggest to review your Service Terms.

Thanks for your time

Big Brother is on the Ride Again...

.
By Zoran Matić Mazos
.

The editorial board of ZIKISON - Satire & Humor expresses bitterness and frustration concerning the suspension of Ben Heine DeviantArt's account, which he has been using for the past two years. Ben is a Zikison correspondent and associate author from Belgium. This suspension of his DA account has happened following a post with an illustration showing a crucified Jesus wearing a condom. We are speechless and appalled by this censorship. BIG BROTHER seems to exist in democratic countries such as The United States of America, and particularly in one of these liberal states, CALIFORNIA, where DeviantArt is based! Be careful, dear readers. Maybe right now, while you are reading this, BIG BROTHER is watching you.

Back without Ben
.
By DoubleCrash

.

My friend, and our friend BenHeine has been permanently banned by deviantArt.

This happened because of the last illustration he posted, depicting a crucified Jesus wearing a condom. The message, stated clearly, was "GOD IS LOVE. USE CONDOMS." Initially they made him put a "mature content" flag, and this is (not by my standards) somewhat understandable. Then they deleted the image again and Ben put it on a second time. Then: permanently banned.

This is NOT a matter of religion or blasphemy. In my personal dictionary, "GOD IS LOVE" is, more or less, what poor Jesus said preaching during all his short 33-years-span of mundane life. And it is NOT "hate art", because the image was expressing the doubts (shared by millions of people) on what Benedictus the Sixteenth stated about the use of condoms in a world chock-full of AIDS victims and unwanted children (who, after some year, usually die from starvation while Benedictus and the likes of him spend time polishing their jewelry).

So, it's NOT blasphemy and it's NOT hate art. Let's read the terms of service: DA can delete images "obscene, offensive, blasphemous, pornographic, unlawful, threatening, menacing, abusive, harmful, an invasion of privacy or publicity rights, defamatory, libelous, vulgar, illegal or otherwise objectionable".

Hmm... let's see: in fact, they can delete more or less what they want. Shucks: no need to be Plato to invent a dialectic gizmo by which insert any unwanted image in one of the above categories.

And, with this, as a surplus, all us deviants and DA lose one of the most reknown modern illustrators and won't be able to see his works here anymore?

I wonder where the meanings of "deviant" and "art" are, right now.

Congrats.

Ben Heine banned
from Deviantart
.
By Nerosunero

.

Tonight Belgian artist and cartoonist Ben Heine has been completely banned from http://benheine.deviantart.com/ for his cartoon (the one here reproduced) "God is Love. Use condoms". The full size cartoon that Ben created in response to a recent statement by Pope Benedict XVI on his visit to Africa: "One cannot overcome the problem of AIDS with the distribution of condoms," the pope told reporters on the plane. "On the contrary, they increase the problem". Can be see on Ben Heine's blog at.

Ben is a great artist, cartoonist and illustrator. He can be (this is part of his work) highly provoking, but he never lacks of touch, elegance and style. To ban his artistic works as they were pornographic is highly offensive for the artist and for all of those who like and can fully appreciate his work.

Ok, Whatever we accept the concept of his art or not, DA has to respect everyone's right to express his thoughts using their Art. And they have to stop the double standards they're doing here.

Plz, Let's unite, and stand against these double standards. Support Ben by spreading the story, writing a journal, or whatever. Thank You everyone. Peace & Solidarity.

Ben Heine censurado
por DeviantArt
.
Esquina Montevideo para Rebelion.org

.

Queremos denunciar que el artista, ilustrador y periodista belga, Ben Heine, al que tantas veces hemos recurrido en Esquina Montevideo, ha sido censurado permanentemente por DeviantArt (http://benheine.deviantart.com), sin siquiera enviarle una nota comunic ándole el porqué de esta acción.
.
El motivo fue la ilustración de Ben que acompaña este post y que fue realizada como respuesta a las declaraciones del Papa en Africa, el pasado marzo, acerca del uso del condón. Claro, este último tiene el privilegio de no ser censurado y mucho menos llevado a juicio cuando hace declaraciones engañosas y peligrosas.
.
Ben, hizo uso de su derecho a responder con su arte a las nefastas declaraciones del Pontífice. Una vez más, el arte político y comprometido es censurado por los perros guardianes de este sistema. Por suerte para todos, este tipo de acciones no lograrán silenciar la forma de expresarse de Benjamin, ni de otros que como él ponen su arte al servicio de los “sin voz”, al decir de Eduardo Galeano.
.
Desde esta Esquina, enviamos toda nuestra solidaridad a Ben y convocamos a nuestros lectores y amigos a boicotear la página de DeviantArt, como forma de protestar por la flagrante censura que ejercieron contra este magnífico artista.

Dear Ben, Brilliant!

Great piece of art, very beautiful and very provocative too, in many ways.

That should stir up a hornets nest, especially amongst many who refuse to see Jesus in his fallible HUMAN, anti-gravitational form, with all his vulnerable genitalia, and the responsibilities of ownership that go with it.

I like how you left off the beard and moustache too, and apart from his very manly 'appendix' his whole form has that slight feminine air to it. It will be interesting to see the responses to it.

Here in the States where there are SO many puritans and literally "God-Fearing people" the response could be quite Victorian!

BRAVO!

Hi Ben!

I am a fellow artist on DA, and was told by Doublecrash of your banning for “God is Love”.

I believe your artwork is very important and I myself am getting more and more political in my work. I’ve seen your work on your Blog page.

I don’t think that DA should be banning images that have a powerful message in these chaotic political times. I don’t like that they think they can apply the rules without considering each piece carefully. I also don’t like the terminology they use when noting people about removing artwork. I recently got one – the terms “violation” and “reported” makes an artist feel like a criminal. All they had to do was note me and ask me to remove it. They are unnecessarily heavy-handed, and I think power has gone to their heads a bit.

You are a very talented artist and have a powerful voice, and to be banned on an art site is a disgrace. I think you are a good example to learn from, and doing this would serve all other artists on DA in regards to’ freedom of speech’. Artists don’t just make pretty pictures to hang in homes, they express views that need to be discussed. Art has always been and will always be controversial, and DA has to get used to that fact. Also leaving up ‘hate’ images and pornographic images tells me that the DA admins aren’t necessarily the experts in such matters. I have a degree in Visual Art and I know the Uni lecturers I studied with would consider your art very important. DA just doesn’t have a clue.

Cheers, Ben!

Hi Ben,

This is Mingu444 from DeviantART, in case you're wondering. Hey .. I just saw that you were banned there, and I wanted to tell you how incredibly bummed out I am for you and for that community. I knew there would be a reaction to one or two of your latest drawings, but I wasn't expecting that harsh of a response, and I really disagree with it.

In the spirit of full disclosure, I should tell you that I'm Catholic ... not born and bred, but a later in life conversion. I'm only telling you that to say that while some of the images you drew were certainly provocative in their own way, I know that your intention is to make a point that you feel strongly about, and I find no offense in it.

I think you're a brilliant artist and a very intelligent human being. I'll miss seeing your work at DA, but I'll visit your personal website for updates, and if you don't mind I've added you to my contacts list here. Take care, Ben ... I wish you all the best.

Hey Ben,

Yeah, DA is running biased policy.

This site allowing genitals photo around, but banning yours. This site allowing blood nudity photo but banning Palestine war journalism photo in the name of 'sadistic-blood artwork violation'. This site allowing using any 'google' photo to be vector traced, or manip, and reproduced as derived artwork, but they will banning any 'google' photo that reproduced to support Palestine in the name of 'copyright violation' --eventhough they havent checked/confirm it to the artist itself. This site allowed clearly copyrighted materials subject from anime, manga, games that just having minor editing to be submitted as an fan-artwork, but they will easilly give you art-thief label to you if you do this kind activity to produce anti-Israeli occupation artwork.

They even deleted journals. NMI write a report about Gaza situation in their journal, but then they deleted it. NMI use the journal feature to publish war-journalism, but they dont like it. So why is this feature named 'journal'?

In last February, I had 5 of my artwork deleted, because of "Copyright Violation", 1 highly popular (traffic bringer), 3 is Palestine related artwork, and 1 Capitalism critic. And several days later they sent me a nice note telling me that I'm an art thief.

This kind of situation is the one which make lazy to produce artworks to be submitted to DA. I'm lucky enough that I havent been banned yet. But I think someday it will. When I 'gave-up' to be vocal in DA, I see theres 3 'vocalist' that could maintain the protest, that is Latuff, Baldinger and you. But this time they banned you. So there's only 2 left.

I cannot draw, so I use photo to give illustration of message in my artworks. And this is the 'hole' they were extreemly happy to 'exploit'. But you. You can produce your artworks independently without using any copyrighted materials, so they cannot 'exploit' you from copyright policy. You tends to silence and passive when the anti-Palestine provoked you, so they cannot trapped you to fall into 'etiquette policy'. And when you upload your latest artwork, they think this is the right time to 'get rid of you once and for all' [evil-laugh background voice]. And there you go: banned.

Best regards,

Lahandi

Dear Ben,

I support you all the way to say your opinion without any censorship or supervision.

I am not Catholic or even religious, but the most shocking thing is not the cartoon but what The Pope said!

I stand with you all the way and I hope this will not stop you to do and say what you mean and what you would think!

Ben, you are not alone !

Nayer
.
--------------------
.
Simple, but with much expression! The simple ideas are often the best ideas!

I wouldn't go so far like other guys and call the pope a murderer of millions because of his statements, but he definitely destroyed most of the sex education in Africa which was done in the last decades.

It's a true pity. This cartoon might hit some catholic people in their faces, but sometimes it's neccessary.

Thanks for this visual statement, Ben.

Totally amazed at this action by DA. Totally appalled as well! Ben's work has been a damn GIFT to this place and they remove it? They do not accept an Adult filter even?

Yet they do allow gory bloody photography and painting that makes one's skin crawl? I love browsing through DA for images and have spent many happy hours and come across some very bizarro stuff.

I am not an artist and do not contribute, but what I can and will do is write tomorrow to whomever I can find to voice my dissatisfaction with this punitive and petty action.
We will not be silenced!

The answer my friend, is blowing in the wind", as Bob Dylan long time ago wrote and sang. But, don't worry, this is not the first and not the last thing like this in our blasphemous World. We are heading towards its end by doing this kind of censorship as well.

I am a Muslim from Bosnia and Herzegovina but who can tell me the nationality of amebas or ancient cells. Nobody! Continue what are you doing. Let's fight for the World without censorship, hatred and the World in which we would not say that MY GOD IS THE BEST GOD. We all came from the same God but we give him/her different names. If there is, of course, any God at all! Sincerely,

I always loved this little story:

High above the Earth, on a cloud, Jesus sits with St-Pierre and wonders if people still remember who he was. So St-Pierre gives him the possibility to go one night on Earth.

Hop, he arrives in a place where there are young and old people, of all shapes and forms, and all cry when they see him : Oh My God, Jesus, Jesus's come !

Very happy and proud, Jesus comes back on his cloud and says, well cool, people still remember who I was !

St-Pierre frowns and confess, well, sorry, but it seems I sent you to a hospital, and people being ill, it's normal, they think about you.

So Jesus makes another experience, this time in a sunny and funny place, full of people of all backgrounds ... who cry just the same.

Again he comes back joyfully, and again St-Pierre frowns, the center being a home for the elders. And being old, blah blah...

The third and last time, Jesus is categoric and wants a place full of young people, modern, amusing themselves...

And hop, he arrives in a kind of nightclub. And well, no need explaining... encounters a cute person and they spend the night together. In the morning Jesus suddenly realizes he didn't ask the most important thing, and before leaving he ask :

- Huh, by the way, do you know who I am ? Sleepily the other answers :
- Hum, well, where you come from, who you are, and all, I really don't know and don't care, but in bed, waow, you make love like a real little God.

Deviant Dreaming
.
By thepoetryman

Too dirty! Too ungodly!
Too iconic, like some unthinkable
Beast leaping out a child’s throat,
Wielding its claws as switchblades
(Or bullets or bombs),
Planting red lips upon the sleeping,
Bringing innocence to its knees.

Too much, God damn it!
Too rich! Too immeasurable
Like a pedophile’s rancid erection
Penetrating a child’s flaccid faith
Etched within youth’s center;
They’ll choose not to speak of it-
A secret... censored between fleshes.

A voice hollowed out,
Suppressed like a fearless work of art.
Too dirty! Too ungodly! Too iconic!
Who needs such art, such temptation?
(Flesh without cover)
Can’t have the commoners thinking such
Rigid ideas, might cause a mutiny…

Let us have cockle shells
And other silent dreamings;
Not essentials like art and reflection.
No! Too difficult! Too insurmountable;
A child’s dream or a mother’s breast.
Best keep such things under wraps,
Hidden where they belong.

Too filthy! Too profane!
Too iconic like some naughty child
Jumping out the belly of a beast,
Wielding his mind as a paintbrush
(Or a pen or a dance),
Moving his thoughts over the nobility
Bringing them to their knees.

My Dreams Are Here
.
Image above and poem
below by Peter S. Quinn
.
My dreams are here in earthly stay
Like corrode on earth to go
In years to come as it all may
Some be lost like others grow

Each dream in roots of desolate
In all their wordless to give
This and that in pleasures made
And futures new to live

Go away! Go away! No-More-Ignorance
Go away! Go away! Give each of us a chance
We are together to bring art out
Love and peace is what it is all about
We artists of every nation
Bringing our love with anticipation
We don't require any Censored Theme
All we want is true art in its mainstream
Let's sing together now for our peace
And making our dreams coming through to please
Let's give hope when there's a cloudy sky
Be alive and true without asking why

Bliss of touching and feelings found
My guessing with moments on
Times that were and are around
When later I will be gone

My flowers given and taken
With ascend to carry age
When heart-strings are re awaken
That gave my roses their weight

Go away! Go away! No-More-Ignorance
Go away! Go away! Give each of us a chance
We are together to bring art out
Love and peace is what it is all about
We artists of every nation
Bringing our love with anticipation
We don't require any Censored Theme
All we want is true art in its mainstream
Let's sing together now for our peace
And making our dreams coming through to please
Let's give hope when there's a cloudy sky
Be alive and true without asking why

No time shall break my seeds to thrive
And grow its bouquet's blossom
When I'm dead I'll still be alive
In the whole lot my work is from

My flowers given and taken
With ascend to carry age
When heart-strings are re awaken
That gave my roses their weight

That gave my roses their weight!
Go away!
We aren’t going to take it anymore

Go away!
We aren’t going to take it anymore

Contest on Censorship

By No More Ignorance

.

It's supposed that The Internet has evolved to become an increasingly important platform for advocates who wish to express their opinion freely and to work toward the development of democracy.

It's a medium that provided opportunities for everyone to participate, discuss and debate issues that concern them. Unlike other media where the information flow is unidirectional - from the government to the masses - the Internet allowed a multi-way communication process giving the chance for anybody to air their opinions and views on issues affecting them.

But now, things didn't seem to go that smoothly... as, websites turned to enjoy the so called "Internet Censorship", according to their own rules, opinions, and decisions.

In this contest, We're asking for artworks works with "Censorship" theme... Artworks that expresses our refusal to these actions... asks for a complete freedom of expression within our profiles, blogs and websites.

.

.This Contest is dedicated to !BenHeine
