Transformer Gallery shows Wojnarowicz video banned... (2010 Alefantis article)
Washington Post ^

Posted on 11/15/2016 12:43:39 PM PST by MNDude

As an act of defiance, the gallery president, puzzled and angered like many in Washington's art community, presented "A Fire in My Belly" by David Wojnarowicz to any passersby on P Street NW. James Alefantis, the Transformer president, is showing a continuous loop of the banned four-minute artwork - with a few seconds in which ants crawl across a crucifix - and promised to run it for 24 hours.

"I am so tired of dealing with the artistic community and their hate speech against Christians, because every time this happens I'm told [the art] is complex and a matter of interpretation," says Donohue, who emphasized that he never asked for the video to be removed. "Look, if someone puts a swastika on a synaogue, that's not complex and not open to interpretation. . . . When the Smithsonian - with this prestige and federal funding - offends Catholics, I can't pretend it hasn't happened. The more established the source of the offense, the more likely it is we have to respond."

Late Wednesday, the gallery had secured rights from Tom Rauffenbart, executor of the artist's estate...

The most important thing I took away from the article is that the "artist" is dead and won't be "creating" and more pieces of crap posing as art.

Yes, my point of posting it was just to show Alfante’s disdain for the cross for awhile.

I see where you are going now with the Alefantis connection.
Pizza.

I was just reading a long article from Reddit about Comet Pizza. All of the stuff contained is collated and sourced on a website called pedocrats.com.
If a fraction of things claimed there are true (I don’t know if they are or not),there are some sick mfers in our government..

It’s all about the pizza.

more Freepers, and citizens in general, need to be made aware of these horrific acts.

They even molest babies!
