Aidan Salakhova's Censored Artworks Now on Display at Italian Pavilion at the Venice Biennale
 
The Italian pavilion announced yesterday that it put on display "Black Stone'' by Aidan Salakhova. The marble sculpture is based on a black stone in Mecca held sacred by Muslims. In Ms Salakhova's version the black stone appears to be flowing like a tear, out of the white marble case that holds it. She takes this to symbolize the tears of penitent and suffering individuals who come to Mecca with their prayers.
