Personally I don’t think the Pope piece is all that great. Religion-bashing has become too prevalent and over done. Too easy. This just seems crass and lazy, like the artist thought to themselves, how can I offend as many people as possible while getting my message across? It’s just too ‘modern’ in its presentation. This anything goes attitude of art is good in some ways, as it opens ways for artists to express themselves, but it also opens the doorway to lazy/con-artist artists. Case in point; a piece that is literally a turd on a plate, entitled ‘dinner’. Wow, I just thought up a great concept, right? It’ll get right into the Moma. Just too overdone.

The perspective is brilliant. Anyone who saw the work of “Maurizio Cattelan, La Nona Ora (The Ninth Hour)” being “evil”… well in my eyes might see the glass half empty. The Pope is obviously still alive, and the piece is representing possibly an Apocalypse. Instead of taking a “Good” or “Evil” side, look at the perspective from the artist. Not yourself, because you can’t delegate what brought tears to other individuals eyes, and what truly touched them. Your opinion will only last a short amount of time, while what was created will last much longer.

for all these pope fans out there, how do you know he was a good man. did you know him at all? or are you just saying that because people tell you he was a good man. he may have been a right c*nt for all you know. personally i think anyone who has such outmoded views on things such as homosexuality and abortion must be a bit of an idiot. along with all the sheep who follow what he says. george carlin had it right (may he rest in peace)

Maybe they should do one of Pope Benedict doing the nazi salute. Evil yes, but very true. Besides whether it was done before or after The late Pope John Paul II, who cares. Maybe it was to provoke the bible thumping religious fanatics like the ones above to come out of the woodwork, and prove my point, that organized religion is bullshit, and full of hypocrisy. Thanks ya’ll, great job trying to act all high and mighty and coming off sounding like the true tools you are. @ Patrick. I was catholic too, and don’t feel that this is at all blasphemy. Just honesty in art form.

The sculpture of the pope must be looked at as it is presented, out of context. And also, like most great art, look for metaphors of what moght be going on. Such as how he still holds the crucifix off the ground, and how the boulder could be the weight of opposition attempting to crush an indomitable spirit. I am by no means a catholic, but even I can read more into it than just a shallow depiction of blasphemy.
If that is all you see, stick to looking at the stained glass in your churches. The ones that show Jesus being killed. Art is so much more than what it initially appears to be.

Art Is Passion. Passion Causes Debate. If A Piece Of Art Doesn’t Cause Some Sort Of Debate, Doesn’t Stir Up Some Passion One Way Or Another, Be It With The Art Itself Or The Subject Matter Then Is It ART??
There Is And Never Will Be Evil In Art Because As Soon As Everyone Agrees It’s Evil Won’t It Cease To Be Art?

I hope a boulder falls on me when I die ad then someone makes a sculpture of it. At least I wouldn’t JUST be remembered as a pope then. I would be something more.
