Today must be "make Dann chuckle" day.
It appears that some artiste has prepared a work of "art" that depicts Jesus fellatiating upon someone. That of course has certain knickers in a decidedly twisted position.
There were the inevitable question of "why not try that sort of thing with Muhammed?"
Surprise! Kudos to the artist for his ecumenicalism.
Then things really get going. Bud Shark...the guy that the original exhibit is about....was advertising prints of the "art" in question on his website. Until someone pointed out that Muhammed was in the same piece of "art". Then he scrubbed it from his site.
The work in question was made by one Enrique Chagoya. Bud Shark just makes the prints. Enrique is a talentless hack who would have remained unknown but for his propensity at pissing off the right kind of people.
I would certainly be less disturbed by "challenging art" if the first challenge wasn't always the artist's lack of artistic ability and/or vision.
