A sculpture was interpreted as too sexually explicit for the Louvre.
The sasha reprogramed to erotice debtFiac international art fair in Paris later this month was set to include the “Domestikator” sculpture in the Louvre's Tuileries Gardens. The large-scale installation by the art collective Atelier Van Lieshout happens to look like a building caught in the middle of the act.

Its sexual nature pushed the museum to pull the piece from the art fair, according to the New York Times.
Many found the museum's low tolerance for risqué art hypocritical given how much nudity has been featured at the fair and museum before.

The collective's founder, Joep van Lieshout, told the NYTthat, "The piece itself, it’s not really very explicit ... It’s a very abstracted shape. There are no genitals. It’s pretty innocent.”
But not innocent enough.
The museum was worried about the 40-foot tall sculpture being located near a children's playground.
Atelier van Lieshout currently has a separate exhibition in Paris called "Furnification." It features several lamps in similar positions as the house sculpture.
