The Butt Plug Gnome

The Dutch are known for their liberal and ‘open’ mind regarding sex. Their government bought this huge Gnome with a large sex toy in his hand from the American artist Paul McCarthy.
This garden gnome, popularly termed ‘Kabouter Buttplug’ (The Butt Plug Gnome), according to the artist, Paul McCarthy, represents a criticism on Western consumerism or the hypocrisy of western civilization. So is it a gnome? It’s not! It’s actually representation of Santa Claus holding a giant anal dildo in his right hand as a Christmas tree and in his left Father Christmas’s traditional bell. You could interpret the work as: “Father Christmas, up your ass!” Here, the butt plug is a symbol with the force and charge of a stretched middle finger.
We want a miniature one in our garden!
