Of course, but mocking the Christian/catholic faiths is lazy, and definitely not edgy or provocative. It’s safe and unimaginative.
Now if they, or he, had done something mocking the prophet Mohammed, now that would have been edgy……….but that would never happen, because they’re not edgy, controversial or rebellious……….it’s safe

Quote:
The official X account for the Olympic Games shared photos of the moment and referenced Dionysus, Greek god of wine-making, fruitfulness and ecstasy.
“The interpretation of the Greek God Dionysus makes us aware of the absurdity of violence between human beings,” read a tweet captioning the photos...
...Appearing on French news channel BFM-TV Sunday, Jolly confirmed “The Last Supper” was “not my inspiration.”
“There is Dionysus who arrives on this table. He is there because he is the God of celebration in Greek mythology,” Jolly said. “The idea was to have a pagan celebration connected to the gods of Olympus. You will never find in me a desire to mock and denigrate anyone.”

Yes, I saw what you posted earlier.
I don’t buy it, and it’s a cowards answer, that’s been called out, and seen the backlash heading his way.
Dionysus, or more well known as Bacchus, the god of hedonism.
There are no historical depictions of him in the style of the Last Supper.
So they can say what they want, their intention was clear.

Except for the one mentioned in my original quote, The Feast of the Gods by Johann Rottenhammer and Jan Brueghel the Elder (1602)…

Why? More so than the countless times the motif of The Last Supper has been used with the participants replaced with comic book characters, cast photos, cartoon characters e.t.c?
This just strikes me as another outrage cycle for people to be angry about something before moving onto the next thing.

Exactly. The artist has explained the background, if they insist he's wrong and persist in seeing a problem where none exists, then it's tine to buy shares in tin foil manufacturers.

Yeah, well easy target isn’t it, as he knows he won’t have a load of Christian’s carrying AK47s looking for him.

Say that to a load of Muslims would you? A Batley grammar school teacher would like a word with you.
