Guangzhou Sculpture Park has caused a controversy by displaying a sculpture of a naked woman in a prominent position.

The naked woman sculpture, on display since last week, was carved by Tang Daxi, a well-known local sculptor, showing the brave and healthy image of a girl.

Many local residents complained the sculpture was dirty and did not keep with Chinese tradition. Others, including many artists, praise the sculpture, saying it's a great artwork.
