An art installation entitled "KREUZ : WEG : STATION" was opened on Sunday, March 9, during the Eucharist in the parish church of St Jakob in Villach, Austria.
The diocese is overseen by Bishop Josef Marketz of Klagenfurt, who became internationally known this February for inventing an "Episcopal Vicaress".
The altar of the church St Jakob is covered with a white cloth. The blasphemies are in the nave (photos from March 11).
The object "balance.AKT" shows the crucified Christ without the cross as a tightrope walker balancing on a slackline.
An explanatory pamphlet reads: "No god is safe in the long run. Every individual and even a son of heaven can experience the loss of balance."
The object "body.CUBE" is a grid made of black-coated aluminum, more than a man's height.
There are 49 sawn-up pieces of 20 identical Christ figures lying around on the grid. The multiple use of the Christ figure is "outrageous," according to the flyer, because Christ is unique.
The installation, which well represents the Church under Francis, will be on display until April 14.
The blasphemer's fee is not known.

Do away with mandatory celibacy,then more healthy normal heterosexuals will enter the priesthood and put an end to the era of the queer, agnostic hierarchy.
That’s diabolical. That place needs an exorcism.
Are those bones laying around? Not a bone of Him shall be broken. Brrrr…
“The installation, which well represents the Church under Francis, will be on display until April 14.”
So... it’s not wrong?
