Nea piss christ

Description:This article is over 6 years old Andres Serrano's Piss Christ has attracted controversy for more than two decades. In , the 60x40in red and yellow photograph of a crucifix plunged into a vat of Serrano's urine ignited a congressional debate on US public arts funding; in France last year, it was physically attacked. In midtown Manhattan on Thursday night, a small group of Catholics opposed to the work gathered outside the Edward Tyler Nahem gallery, where the exhibition opened. Anger towards the photograph hit a pinnacle on Palm Sunday when French Catholic fundamentalists attacked and destroyed the photograph with hammers. Serrano's photograph of a meditating nun was also damaged in the attack. When you see it, you're not horrified by it at all, but what it represents is the crucifixion of a man," Serrano told the Guardian.
