Dude hangs a dog as an art project

Is this considered art? A live dog is hung outside an art studio & left to suffocate. Artist gets invited to attend a conference.
Wanted to post it to Mefi but cannot just yet since I am too new I guess. Google the name "Guillermo Habacuc Vargas" (VNSFW).
Dude hung a live dog outside an art studio and left it to die of starvation. Called it an art piece. He's been invited to attend a conference in Honduras.
Not really a question but perhaps someone can post it to MeFi.
Here's an online petition to boycott his presence at the conference

This post was deleted for the following reason: like you said, this is not really a question, and nto really a great post to metafilter, while we're at it. feel free to email if you need more guidance on this. -- jessamyn
I'm sure you feel strongly about this but I don't think petitions are the point of AskMeFi. I'm hoping this gets removed because if we open the door to this petition, hundreds more will follow.

The thing about Art is that nothing isn't Art. That's art-with-a-capital-A.
This post, on the other hand, is... well, questionable. As it were.
