The image of Che Guevara is often seen around the world as with this billboard. But in Miami where there is a large Cuban-American population, many were offended when a luxury hotel decided to put up a portrait with his likeness. (Courtesy Lonely Planet Images)
The W South Beach in Miami might be an award-winning 5 star hotel , but that didn t matter to Cuban-American guests and visitors who chanced upon an image that looked adventure travel tours strikingly like the famous photo of Che Guevara.
The controversy is real, said Omar Lopez, the human rights director of The Cuban American adventure travel tours National Foundation (CANF) . The image of Che Guevara is associated with executions in Cuba where numerous political prisoners were sent to labor camps. The community has always been sensitive to that image.
But it turns out the image in question wasn t actually of Che Guevara, but a self-portrait by artist Gavin Turk, which he made to look like the iconic Guevara image seen on shirts. Regardless, the hotel removed the offending portrait.
"W South Beach respects the concerns of our community, which has been so supportive of us, and we have removed British artist Gavin Turk's self-portrait as Che Guevara from the property," the hotel said in a statement to NBC Latino.
We went to the front desk and asked for the manager, a gentleman name Max introduced himself as the night manager, he said. When we told him our concern with the picture and explained what it meant to the Cuban community he said the picture is art and that this was in the owner s house and if we didn t like it to leave, so we left.
Would anyone find offensive a portrait adventure travel tours of an artist representing himself as the famous image of Hitler saluting his third Reich, or as Stalin adventure travel tours at the Red Square? Such would be images to abhor. Mediocre artist Gavin Turks depicting himself as Korda's image of Che Guevara, the first terrorist of Latin America, is much worse than just a portrait of Che, the murderer, himself. It shows his admiration for this pathetic assassin and implies that we are to glorify adventure travel tours him as well. None of my family members were murdered by Che, but as a human being, I owe it to his innocent victims to tell the world the truth about their fate at the hands of this evil person. It's just a matter of dignity, honor and responsibility. W Hotel, very poor choice of art on your part: ART SHOULD NOT DISHONOR THE LIVES OF INNOCENT VICTIMS (many of which were children!!), art should not exalt murderers, and, art should ultimatelybe responsible and sensitive to humanity.

THE TRUE STORY OF CHE GUEVARA- The History Channel presentation: From his famous motorcycle trips to his historic role in the Cuban Revolution, Argentinean revolutionary Che Guevara is profiled in a documentary produced to explore the life of the man whose visage has become an iconic symbol of hard left politics. This man, who ordered the execution of countless human beings while in charge of the notorious La Cabaña prison in Havana, who terrorized Cuban society and who denied freedom to thousands of citizens whom he considered "deviants" or "anti-revolutionaries" can never be accepted as a hero, martyr or — the shock of it — a saint.
