Mideo Cruz of CCP Art Exhibit "Kulo"
First, what is Art? Art is the product or process of deliberately arranging items (often with symbolic significance) in a way that influences and affects one or more of the senses, emotions, and intellect. It encompasses a diverse range of human activities, creations, and modes of expression, including music, literature, film, photography, sculpture, and paintings.
Thus to make it short, Art is the product of one's emotion and imagination expressed in a visual form. Which we can't say that one has a wrong "imagination" wrong "imagination, and so forth we can't say "one has made the wrong art". There's a saying that, "Beauty is on the eye of the beholder" which means each has his own interpretation of his own perspective about certain things and may also mean that he may also have a different understanding and appreciation about an "Art".
So what's wrong with "Kulo" Exhibit by Mideo Cruz? Is his Art form Morally correct?
I may not be the most politically right person, so don't take this offensively, but in my most honest opinion, his art is correct. But, Morally wrong in a sense that yes we have the the freedom to express ourselves (in this case, in the form of Art) but we must think of who, and where is the right venue to express the art. if you think that your art has nothing wrong with it then, be open to accept criticisms and praises as well.
In the view of, "is his art wrong?" i say NO. First of all, even the bible says that "“You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth." Exodus 20:4. So what's the fuss all about that these bishops are angered and raged upon Mideo putting a piece of Penis in the crucifix, treating him as if he relinquished God. Remember, we shouldn't worship material images of God, and saints or any symbolic object cause these are not sacred things and even God/Jesus told us not to praise these things.
