An Ode to Lesbians: Ellen DeGeneres as Jesus in Last Supper

   

timthumb*West Hollywood artist Bronwyn Lundberg has a new piece she has just unveiled and it comes with much controversy but Lundberg is not surprised by the criticisms nor the praises she has received for her work of art, reports The Guardian.

Art no matter the subject or artist has received criticism throughout history. Every art piece has gone through some sort of criticism aside from being praised and loved. Even Da Vinci himself faced criticism for some of his work, artists create from their own mind, their own interpretations of a given subject. Art is meant to be enjoyed and for the viewer to see a piece from that artist’s point of view. When it comes to art their is no right or wrong but an artists’ vision for the world to see. Not everyone will enjoy or like it, but that is the society we live in:  We live in a diverse society with differing tastes and cultures. Some aren’t so accepting, but artists can’t let what one group says keep them from creating, or else the world will be without art.  In the world of art, you can’t please everyone, and lesbian artist Bronwyn Lundberg knows this, as she has crafted her latest the “lesbian last supper.”

In the “Lesbian Last Supper,” Lundberg replaced Jesus with Ellen DeGeneres and Judas with “The L Word” character “Shane McCutcheon.” Other lesbians depicted in the art piece are Wanda Sykes, Portia De Rossi, Rosie O’ Donnell and Rachael Maddow.

  1. I have nothing against gay people no matter what they classify themselves as, but do they have to cram their lifestyle down everyone’s throat? I mean this is disrespectful to Christians.
    It may not bother athiests or other religious groups, but this is too much.Does everything have to be portrayed as gay nowadays?

    EVERYTHING ABOUT LESBIANS GAYS AND HOMOSEXUAL IS NOT PROPER, WHEN GOD CREATED THE WORLD HE CREATED A MAN AND A WOMAN SO ITS VERY EVIL FOR A WOMAN TO BE WITH HER FELLOW WOMAN, ABOMINABLE ACT. AS A CHRISTIAN THIS ART IS SO DISRESPECTFUL

  3. What bothers me most aside from this being disrespectful to christians, is that if a christian complains about this we r called intolerant. Yet I would dare wonder, if a artist painted a picture of gays being thrown into hell or forced to kneel before God then the gay community would be outraged. Its always ok for them to express themselves, but if a christian expresses themselves its a hate crime or prejudice. It always seems ok to mock christianity but God forbid if anyone mocks homosexuality. Its a double standard.

  4. Christ died for the Sins of all men. This artist has to face judgement some day as well.

    Apparently the artist said they chose Ellen, because she has made such a good impact on the world….hmmm let’s see. We already know that Jesus saved the world from their sins. So Ellen has a BIG act to follow. So what does Ellen bring to the world???

    1. Hosts a boring chat show where losers like the bisexual/bipolar Nicki Minaj talk about their vile antics, er sorry musical talent calling them ‘inspirational’.
    2. Dances around her chat show stage like an old man would at a wedding..she has NO rhythm.
    3. Hmmm can’t think of anything else.

    So no Ellen ain’t no Jesus. This artist is just using our Lord and Saviour for some cheap publicity. It’s actually quite funny that they have been compared (albeit perversely) to men. Could the artist not think of any women of renown? Sorry lesbo’s but our masculine Lord and Saviour, King of Kings, is and shall always be Number One!
