Next week there will be a showing of a chocolate scupture by Cosimo Cavallaro that will depict Jesus crucified. Obviously certain groups are really upset at the display of naked Jesus that is sculpted out of chocolate... Apparently it really wasnt standard for people who were crucified to be wearing cloths and this artist wanted to stay true to form. My question is this, if it was made out of marble instead of chocolate, would the president of the Catholic Leauge protest?
And if they would still... why arent they protested the chocolate bunnies and peeps that reign supreme over the easter holiday?
Click here if youre interested in reading the article. It seems that it isnt as pornographic as one might initially think and perhaps Cavallaro's work is nothing more than the critique of the commercialization of Easter.
