Sweet chocolate Jesus!

And whether or not Art is offensive is irrelevant. The statue is a work of art....end of story.

The sculpture is clearly artisitic.

i was speaking of a different piece of art. not chocolate jesus.

I dont think anyone denies that.

I was talking about a piss stained crucifix

whether or not art theory claims it to be so. I cannot accept that a piece of work made entirely to offend is a piece of art. and cannot understand how it could be

Jesus was black

You ever saw that painting of the Virgin Mary that had cow dung on it ? In India, Cows are sacred and so are thier excrements. The intention is what matters.

Well, this is funny. It's like the argument against profanity, "It's okay to curse, as long as it doesn't offend me."

We are not in disagreement

Sorry I misconstrued the piss stained comments for the actual statue, but what I said still applies.

First read what the artist intended. Obviously people can have differing opinions

"Body of Christ"
"Tasty"

I wonder if the Roman Catholic Church would approve chocolate eucharist though.

Lol, you said sweet chocolate Jesus, and Jesus is black.

Thanks for pointing out the obviousness of said statement. 😄

Putting one’ s own, recalcitrant opinion on the figure of Christ has become a recurrent common theme in the plastic arts by now. Dali, Beuys, Kiefer, Serrano…

Most certainly not.
