A thread where the usual "detcord" answer has real purpose?

Detcord for the "artwork" or for the chicken spaghetti?

Either?  Both?  For the "artwork" primarily though.

Chagoya said he's surprised by the response, saying there were no objections when the piece, which also includes comic book characters, Mexican pornography, Mayan symbols and ethnic stereotypes, was shown last year at a museum in Denver.

So perhaps there is a cultural difference between the two cities?  It's a wonder he didn't think of that.

And apparently there is more to be outraged about than just kneeling Jesus.

Seeing as how there is admitted pornography in the exhibit I cannot understand why the laws that require the hiding of such from children's eyes is not in play.  But what the heck, we all know I'm sort of a concrete thinker in those regards.

stay safe.

For the same reason, I assume, there's no click-through warning on the Guttenberg Project?

Cheddar cheese on spaghetti? Further proof that all casserole recipes should be destroyed, for the good of mankind. How can a loving God permit such atrocities?
It is just noodle casserole.  It is not spaghetti.  If it were normal spaghetti and meat sause with chicken instead of beef, I might could get behind it, but it is just another casserole.  I generally hate casseroles.

HEY!

How come nobody mentioned this before?  Seems all the hoopla over gay Jesus is just a cover to avoid having to mention that Mohammed likes porking the pork.  The only place I found that mentioned it directly was http://rhymeswithright.mu.nu/archives/306421.php , and I got there from a brief mention here http://elmtreeforge.blogspot.com/2010/10/he-may-or-may-not-be-lousy-artist-but.html .

So maybe we could start a pool on how soon the artist starts receiving death threats?  Proceeds to go towards the purchase of the SS APS.

stay safe.

So, accusations from this thread notwithstanding, he attacks Muhammed too?

Hmm. Never saw the "art" before, and the news stories didn't mention Muhammad. This should be interesting.

Well someone snapped and took a crowbar to it.

I hope she gets charged for her crimes. As much as I and others disagree with the subject of art work, the artist and business is protected by the 1st amendment just like we are.

It's probably better that the woman took a crowbar to the exhibit. A muslim might have taken out the whole building, and then then we'd have to listen to an Obama speech about Islam being a peaceful religion.

And the towel-headed guy with the dancing pigs is still not mentioned.

I'm posting this is the Politics forum because the Colorado art museum is taxpayer-funded, and that's where I take issue with this exhibition of "art".

Taxpayer funding of something does not give you the right to get the art removed.  You have the right to vote against the representatives charged with overseeing the committees that deal with art funding allocations... If they're your representatives.

Setting up Jesus in a situation like that? My, how edgy. Absolutely no-one has done anything like that before. I wonder why no-one else thought of it first.

Huh.  That's how I feel about 95% of publicly funded art.

And he didn't say it did, either.

Since the goal of modern "art" is either to disappoint the viewer by the total lack of meaning or content (Jackson Pollack), or to shock, insult or offend the viewer, galleries and museums ought to encourage the smashing of "installations" with crowbars. Neh?

The artwork style reminds me of the old ZAP comix featuring Wonder Warthog and those Fabulously Furry Freak Brothers and the work of R. Crumb

Montana woman takes crowbar to "art" and crowbar wins.
