Doves,
 
Great job! Great job! Great job!
 
Nice to see fellow brothers and sisters in Christ from all over the world rise up and voice their displeasure over "artist" Michael D'Antuono and his blasphemous painting titled "The Truth."
 
Below is a copy of the press release D'Antuono released on PR Newswire on April 27. The bottom link is to a story about the public outcry.
 
Praise God in the Highest!

'The Truth': D'Antuono Cancels Unveiling of Obama Painting Due to Public Outrage

NEW YORK, April 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Painter Michael D'Antuono has cancelled the planned public unveiling of his latest work "The Truth" at NYC's Union Square Park on President Obama's 100th day in office due to overwhelming public outrage. The artist's decision was based in part on thousands of emails and phone calls; online blogs and other public commentary received in the first 48 hours following its release.
 

The painting which was first made public on Friday 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. The photo was the most emailed picture on the web.
 

The artist insists that the work was intended purely as a political piece. "The religious reference was used metaphorically and not to insult anyone's religious beliefs. If that is the effect that my art has had on anyone, I am truly sorry," says D'Antuono.
 

Over the next several weeks, the artist hopes to make public much of the content received that helped shape his decision. He continues to welcome people's questions, comments and feedback at thetruth@dantuonoarts.com.
