Art Museum Displays Crucified Frog
Posted by Dave Blount at August 29, 2008 7:59 AM
For millennia, going back to the exquisite sculptures of the Greeks, Western Civilization rightfully took pride in its art. Then came moonbattery.
The latest example of what art has deteriorated into comes from Italy, once the epicenter of the Renaissance:
An art museum in northern Italy said Thursday it will continue displaying a sculpture portraying a green frog nailed to a cross that has angered Pope Benedict XVI and local officials.
If it offends decent people, it's art. Apparently there are no other standards, which is why so few artists bother to develop any depth of vision or technical skill anymore.
Apparently this tasteless novelty item passes for art.
On a tip from mega.
