Daum Museum be aware Michael Peven, who showed there May 30, 2003 - September 13, 2003 and is in the permanent collection with confidential information.  Michael Peven first published pornography in the guise of art in 1979 and still promotes it today?  How did that slip by your curatorial staff?  I would think a show underwritten by the Missouri Art Council would not promote an artist who did "art" of that sort.  I believed the Museum is almost in the buckle of the Bible belt.  I do not even find a nude at the museum site.  They presented an artist who shot "his" erect penis as art five years before they added some of his confidential information twenty-six years ago? .

He pulled a set of artist books that resembled match books and called them "snatches".  He published these with his erect penis on display at the University of Arkansas server for several months, the Daum museum can be excused for missing his porn.  Large images of a dog printed spread across various pieces on a wall?  Good Dog was so far ahead of its time. Its time might not get here this century.  Leave it to the Daum Museum to preserve his past art masterpiece of dog snapshots in the old exhibit section. 

At least it wasn't his erect penis printed on a wall divided across several frames. 
buen perro, buon cane, goede hond, guter Hund, bon chien, good dog;  translated enough they are still only snapshot of a dog.  Pevin has his confidential information in the museum collection.  It is not his erect penis.  It is still a low-grade erotic snapshot.  It is less vulgar but it is typical Michael Peven fare.  They are from five years after his snatches were published.  He had his erect penis put away by then.  You guys have been fooled and on his resume for twenty-six years.  That is almost as long as he fooled the University of Arkansas.

The University of Arkansas cleared their server of his pornography within 24 hours of the first complaint of 2009.  His masterpiece  confidential information in your collection stamps your approval on his reputation.  Lands you in his resume.  With Daum museum's help, who will he deceive next?

Michael Peven's artist book series he calls SNATCHES are still online. 
So is Michael Peven's : ERECT PENIS.

Michael Peven works at the  University of Arkansas Art Department and publishes pornographic photographs. 

Michael Peven has been employed at the University of Arkansas for thirty-two years. What a  waste of taxpayer money! To study photography at the University of Arkansas a person implies an approval of Michael Peven’s pornography masquerading as art!

Michael Peven's pornography will offend the morals of any reasonable juror and even those who are the most accepting of the nude as art. Michael Peven continues to lead the University of Arkansas in non-photography after more than a quarter century as its figurehead.

Michael Peven must feel publishing erotica and pornography will not harm his career. It probably won't. We will see soon enough.  Someone should explain why the University of Arkansas has wasted so much money on Michael Peven for thirty years.
 
The University of Arkansas made a severe error hiring Michael Peven as a photo instructor.

Donors might decide instead to support a new NWA Crystal Bridges Museum of visual art?

Michael Peven took a photo of a semi-nude male, along with an erect penis, and printed it on a simulated matchbook. Michael Peven then calls it a snatchbook. Michael Peven first published pornographic photos of his erect penis about thirty years ago. Michael Peven still offers it for public viewing. It was removed from the University of Arkansas website after complaints that minors were not even warned! The porn once found on the University of Arkansas server is still linked below on a server of a book seller. It was first pulled from the University of Arkansas server but it was removed after receiving a public complaint. The green text below accompanied the vulgar images.

Michael Peven initially published pornography two years after the University hired him thirty-two years ago? Michael Peven markets these "snatches" today!  Artist books are what Michael Peven's Masters Degree is in and NOT photography! 

His art book series called "snatches" are a vulgar publication! Michael Peven has been a pornographer paid as a photo instructor by the University of Arkansas for thirty years after his erect penis photo was published. An erection shown inside what he calls a "snatch" is not a nude study as art. It is a photo of an erection. How many donors will still be donors after they see his vulgarity that they have paid for? Perhaps they have not noticed?

Malfeasance. Stupidity? Pornography. I call it all three. Michael Peven's vulgar publication was first thirty years ago. In these hard economic times, the erect penis Michael Peven publishes a photo of will be all the evidence anyone needs to introduce. Removing the "snatches" marketing now will not help Michael Peven's morals. It might stop his continuing to repel potential students and donors to the University of Arkansas?

How many school teachers were fired for nude photos that were not as vulgar as done by Michael Peven while a college art professor?

Here are examples found quickly on the internet. (1)(2)(3)(4)(...)

If an acceptable instructor replaced him, more artists might pursue a degree at the University of Arkansas?

The pornographer employed by the Art Department at the University of Arkansas will be hard to ignore.

Michael Peven's history as a publisher of pornography and Michael Peven's current lack of morality as demonstrated by his publishing his penis photo he took thirty years ago will be glaring.

What will the Walton family or other large donors think about donating after reading of this issue?

Michael Peven could be dismissed for cause or otherwise replaced in the event he refuses to cease publishing his pornographic 'snatchbooks'? 

Help end Michael Peven allowing nudity displaying sexuality to be excused in the guise of art.

Curtis only recently encountered Michael Peven's blatant pornography being passed off as an artist book.  Curtis found this while promoting his book "Figurenude".

Curtis Neeley became outraged and compelled to act to avoid appearing to condone Michael Peven's definition of art and Michael Peven's blatant misuse of nude photography.  As a serious area photographer who feels nudes can be art, Curtis Neeley must protest very loudly.

Are University of Arkansas staff already letting Michael Peven publish his ERECTION and hiding it behind the mask of art?
Before Curtis Neeley's complaint, Michael Peven's penis was seen publicly on the University of Arkansas' own server?

Image was removed from the University server eleven hours or so after Curtis Neeley's complaint.
