Some might call Kruzifix from Stefan Strumbel sacrilegious, but I think calling it art is more appropriate. The German artist has taken a series of crucifixes and put a colorful splash on each of them for a solo show entitled 'Home Sweet Home.'
Stefan Strumbel's crucifixion redesigns are pretty pieces of art to say the least. I love the choice of bright, flashy, neon colors. Kruzifix from Stefan Strumbel puts a pop art spin on a religious icon. Check out the gallery and decide for yourself whether this is offensive or artistic.
