LoBaido, 38, was arrested in 1999 after throwing horse manure at the exterior of the Brooklyn Museum of Art to protest its display of a painting of the Virgin Mary festooned with elephant dung.

He threw dung to protest the disrespect to the Virgin Mary. He was also arrested for hanging a large American flag on an awning outside the French Consulate as a sign of protest for what he considered France's contempt for the U.S.-led war in Iraq.

Sounds like a person with strong convictions for God and Country.

LOL---looks like he was influenced somewhat by El Greco.
All the paintings from this mans group depict American Flags; that's rare...many artist (some--not all) tend to be a tad liberal leaning.

I'm glad he has strong convictions for God and country, and I certainly approve of his gesture toward the French embassy. But his protests don't negate the fact that he isn't a talented artist.

Some might think it was Carol Mostly-Fraud.

But no, that's the Most Revered (Former) Mayor Harold Washington.

Rumor had it he liked to wear dainty things.

Some student at the Art Institute illustrated the rumor before the body was cold, and all hell broke loose.
