Drawings of Mohammed

Arne Sørensen


Mohammed by Arne Sørensen Arne Sørensen has made an ominously prophetic drawing about free speech in today's Denmark. Just like Bob Katzenelson, Arne Sørensen has made a drawing of another drawing - and just like Bob Katzenelson, Arne Sørensen has ended up on the death list.

Annette Carlsen



I have to confess: I don't understand the drawing made by Annette Carlsen. The man says, "Umm ... I don't really recognize him". No. 2 is Pia Kjærsgård, a Danish Politician who is critical of Muslims. No. 3 has a halo and is presumably Jesus. No. 7 has a sign saying "Kåre's PR. Call for an offer", so this must be Kåre Bluitgen - the author who had problems commissioning an artist for his forthcoming book about Mohammed:
Mohammed(?) by Annette Carlsen
It's a bit odd that both Annette Carlsen as well as Bob Katzenelson use the word PR, even though they could hardly have foreseen that the drawings would cause so much commotion.

One of the the other persons in the line-up may Mohammed, in which case the drawing is blasphemous.
