PC Is Back In NYC

Last month the Edward Tyler Nahem Gallery on 57th Street brought back Richard Serrano's controversial photo PISS CHRIST. The image of the cross bathed in the artist's urine outraged Christians throughout the world. Twenty five years later the 1987 photo continues to act as a lighting rod for protest against the increasing secularization of the society and a New York congressman called for President Obama to condemn the work. Personally I'm not offended nor would I want PISS CHRIST hanging on my wall or any religious icon, but I understand the lasting outrage. The artist has never shot any other religious icons in piss. One scandal in a life time is enough.
