The Film and Publication Board has just given The Spear painting a “16N” rating. This means that children under the age of 16 should not have access to the artwork because it displays nudity.
“The FPB therefore presents to you that a classification rating of 16N has been decided upon by the classification committee for the artwork by Brett Murray titled The Spear. Any persons or entities wishing to publish and exhibit images or replicas of this specific artwork will in future have to put in place mechanisms to regulate access to this piece of art by members of the public below the age of 16.”
