None of the above.

Explanation:

It was a controversial case in the history of bold art. The exhibition by Saatchi at Brooklyn faced a legal lawsuit from Rudolph Giuliani on the charges of obscenity. The court case prosecution continued for months. Eventually, after having reporting multiple supportive stances, the decision was amicable settled by both the parties paying for their dues.
