An art gallery in America joined the hot trend of throwing shoes at George Bush, as they opened a new exhibit with a paint-splattered fundraiser that featured a 'shoe throw' at an image of the departing President.
91-year-old Marjorie Mather reacts with joy after hitting a picture of President Bush with a paint-covered shoe
Eric Navickas, a City Councilor in Ashland, Oregon, who opened the MAda Shell Gallery by slathering a layer of red paint on the soles of sneakers, boots and sandals. People then took turns to fire the footwear at an 8-foot image of Bush.
Each shot cost $1 at Friday's opening, with the funds to go toward future gallery exhibits.
Godard said the exhibit is a 'statement of solidarity' with Muntadhar al-Zeidi, the Iraqi journalist who was arrested after hurling two shoes at Bush in protest during a Baghdad news conference last month.
One contributor was 91-year-old Marjorie Mather.
'Wow, I didn't know that was going to be so much fun,' she said after smacking a shoe into the picture of Bush.
