The Spear (painting)
''The Spear'' is a painting by Cape Town-based South African artist, Brett Murray. It depicts South African President Jacob Zuma in a pose reminiscent of Lenin, with his genitals exposed. The painting triggered a defamation lawsuit by Zuma's party, the African National Congress (ANC), and was vandalized on 22 May 2012.

Prior to its being vandalized, ''The Spear'' was shown at the Goodman Gallery in Johannesburg, South Africa. The painting featured as one of the pieces of artist Brett Murray's ''Hail to the Thief II'' exhibition, which commenced on 10 May 2012.〔 Inspiration is understood to have been drawn from the Victor Ivanov poster ''Lenin Lived, Lenin is Alive, Lenin Will Live''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://inside-politics.org/2012/05/17/the-painting-of-president-zuma/ )〕 The exhibition features various pieces that are critical of South Africa's ruling party, the ANC, showcasing sculptures and images that suggest corruption and bad governance.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.goodman-gallery.com/exhibitions/265 )〕 Murray's works in the exhibition also include modifying ANC liberation struggle posters and flyers from the Apartheid era, some displaying the text "Amandla, we demand Chivas, BMWs and bribes".
