She'd prolly like it until you told her what it was. Then you'd have to repent.

I like art as much as the next guy and I understand that sometimes art is about pushing boundries and making people re-examine the world they live in but stuff like the Piss Christ to me is cheap, sensationalist crap. There's pushing boundries for the sake of art and then there's pushing boundries for the sake of controversy and free publicity. How does a painting of Christ in piss and blood further anything other then the artist's career? It's seems unnecessarily offensive to me. It's not personally offensive to me, I'm a very fallen catholic, but certainly to others who haven't fallen as far as I have. I'm sensitive enough to other people's feelings to not make art like that were I an artist. I don't know, maybe I'm just not enlightened enough to understand art like that.

For being made out of piss and blood that's a pretty good painting. I'm impressed.

I don't understand though...is it a photo of his painting?

Or he covered a crucifix in piss and there's blood around it and he took a shot?
