Rename Walter Keane as Walter 'piece of shit' Keane

La causa

Walter Keane was a renowned name in the 1960s art scene, but not for the reasons you might think. While credited with captivating the world with portraits of big-eyed children, it was actually his incredibly talented ex-wife, Margaret Keane, who was the true artist behind those iconic paintings. Tragically, Walter took credit for her work, leaving her in the shadows and manipulating a story to serve his public persona. Margaret, with her incredible skill and unmatched artistic vision, deserved better than deception and dishonesty. Instead of being celebrated for her extraordinary talent, she suffered quietly as Walter basked in undeserved glory, fooling the public and tarnishing the genuine beauty of her creations. The time has come to correct this grave injustice and make it known to the world who Walter truly was. By nicknaming him Walter 'Piece of Shit' Keane, we acknowledge both his reprehensible actions towards his ex-wife and her rightful recognition as the true visionary behind the art. This nickname is not just about calling out his deceit but is a symbol of solidarity with Margaret and all those who have been wronged by such manipulative behavior. Let’s honor the truth and give Margaret Keane the recognition she rightfully earned through her own hard work and dedication. Please join me in this symbolic action to rectify one of the art world’s great injustices. Sign this petition to ensure that history remembers the truth, and that credit is finally given where it is due. Stand with us as we reclaim Margaret Keane's legacy and call for Walter Keane to be remembered accurately as Walter 'Piece of Shit' Keane.
