Rolling Stones Poster Rejected For Display On the Underground

Transport for London has refused to allow the Rolling  Stones’ new Exhibitionism poster to be displayed on the Underground, citing the suggestiveness of the artwork.  The two regulators for the Underground told the Stones that with changes, the poster could be displayed.  The regulators objected to a stylized image of Mick Jagger’s lips protruding from the lower half of a woman’s bikini.

The poster advertises an exhibit on the Stones at London’s Saatchi Gallery. More here from the Daily Mail.

The original version of the poster will go up elsewhere in the UK.
