Starving a dog as a form of Art?!!

I came across a blog which happen to show this video of this "Artist" Guillermo Vargas Habacuc who famously roped in a dog frm the street and let it to starve to death in his gallery. Nevertheless, It really gave me great pain when i was watchin this video. As a dog lover/ owner myself, i have a cute mongrel, Megan and have personally saved two dogs from the street before. Being a musician myself, who fancy art as well, i personally do NOT know what kind of art form is this....Or if u wanna put it in a noble way of this person, is this "Artist" highlighting the plight of these
strays so ppl would put more attention to it??

To my astonishment upon scrolling the other videos, this is NOT the only abused animal/ dog video on youtube, there are tonnes of them, some frm Malaysia as well...=(

Tell me you feel the pain too upon viewing the above video k.
