The sums paid for paintings circa 1960 are becoming outrageous, while some artists simply court trouble instead of patronage.
Is this real - Bacon's paintings on sale - or is it this that's really crazy - 'Chocolate Jesus', showing Him naked in a chocolate statue?

i wasn't aware that sir francis bacon was an artist, so that was fascinating to learn. i'm not however sure i grasp the concept of chocolate jesus. i think however that the comment that they would never show mohammed so during ramadan is absolutely dead-on.

SW: I agree with you - it's a weird concept by the wrong artist at the wrong time.
In spite of their denials!
BTW, this one is not the Sir Francis!

Hold your horses, Queen - I am not the sculptor! Haha.
I agree that the work and the timing is definitely disrespectful!
