Jesus Christ is a favorite subject of artists looking to incite debate. One of the most enduring scandals in the art world was Andres Serrano’s Piss Christ, a photo of a plastic crucifix floating in a glass of his urine. First displayed 1987, it drew furious protests, and was attacked with hammers and destroyed just last year by Catholics in France. In 2010, a video of ants crawling over Jesus caused U.S. lawmakers to consider pulling funding from the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery and was soon removed. In the Philippines, a 2011 exhibit featuring Jesus with a dildo protruding from his head was defaced by vandals, criticized by the president, and finally shut down.
