Martin Kippenberger must have had a reason for making this frog look like something a teenager made from Fimo, because he had real talent.

I'm not saying I like it (I liked Piss Christ, I thought it looked beautiful and was very thought provoking) but it is the work of an artist. Painting below by Martin Kippenberger courtesy of The Saatchi Gallery.
