Arts and Culture Minister Lulu Xingwana said that her decision to walk out of an art exhibition that included images of naked women was not due to homophobia.

Xingwana said The Times article this week about her reaction to the Innovative Women exhibition at Constitution Hill was "mischievous, deliberately misleading and avoiding the facts".

"My reaction was guided by the view that these artworks were not suitable for a family audience .

"I was not aware of the sexual orientation of the pictures or of the artists, and my reaction was not based on anti-gay sentiments."
