No...what I'm doing w/ the post and the thread title is ridiculing the obama worship. I seriously believe the artist believes this

[mmmbeans]

believes what? that obama is jesus? are you fuging retarded? it's art. it's meant to be interpreted and discussed. How you interpret it is a reflection on YOU, not the artist. To interpret it literally is to miss the point entirely. The artist says as much in the article.

/that being said, i think it's a pretty crappy painting.

[Kyle82]

That is absolutely ridiculous!

from the very website you quoted

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.
