This image/painting was created by one Michael D'Anturono, to commemorate The O!ne's 100 first days in office. It'll be unveiled in Union Square in New York...Well, I find this just a bit fascinating."The 30" x 54" acrylic painting on canvas depicts President Obama appearing much like
Jesus Christ on the Cross; atop his head, a crown of thorns. Behind him, the dark veil being lifted (or lowered) on the Presidential Seal. But is he revealing or concealing and is he being crucified or glorified?"D'Antuono insists that this piece is a mirror; reflecting the personal opinions and emotions of the viewer; that "The Truth" like beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. D'Antuono expects that individual interpretations will vary as widely as they do in the political arena. The work will be seen by one viewer at a time behind a voting booth-inspired public installation."
Mr. Grumpy (in comments at SondraK's post), asks "Anybody have a BIG jar of urine we can put display that in?"
Well, just so happens...
