Cosimo Cavallaro, who claims to be an artist, and I don't doubt that he is what he claims to be, will unveil his anatomically correct, loincloth-less, milk chocolate Jesus in New York on April Fool's Day. The crucified Jesus is made of 200 pounds of chocolate. The press release says that the Jesus sculpture is six feet tall. My impression has always been that Jesus was much shorter.
You might remember Cosimo's other important works, such as "Fish in Shit" and just plain "Shit." Or perhaps, you appreciated his seminal works, "Cheese Chair," "Twiggy in Cheese," or his opus, "Cheese Room."
Hey, it's a living.

Not that going to hell would stop me....

I think this man's "artwork" sounds pretty shitty; he should just stick with shit as his basic theme for future creations.
