Mere criticism of the Chicago Jesus means he’s being crucified.
A painting that features President Obama posed as Jesus Christ crucified
on is on display at a community college art gallery in Boston.
The painting by Michael D’Antuono is part of a larger exhibit called “
Artists on the Stump – the Road to the White House 2012.” It’s on display
at the Bunker Hill Community College Art Gallery until Dec. 15th.
The painting is called “Truth” – and shows the president with his
arms outstretched. A crown of thorns rests on his head.
It was originally supposed to debut nearly four years ago at New York
City’s Union Square. But that event was cancelled due to public outrage.
“I always regretted cancelling my exhibit in New York because I feel my
First Amendment rights should override someone’s hurt feelings,” D’
Antuono told Fox News. “We should celebrate the fact that we live in a
country where we are given the freedom to express ourselves.”
Maybe we ought to do a depiction of this dunked in a jar of urine. Piss
Obama.
“The crucifixion of the president was meant metaphorically,” he told
Fox News. “My intent was not to compare him to Jesus.”
D’Antuono blamed the controversy on conservative media “trying to
promote the idea that liberals believe the president to literally be our
savior.”
Depicting Obama as a savior? What a nutty idea. Who would ever do something
so stupid? |
