Andres Serrano's "Piss Christ" destroyed by protesters in France 

Following weeks of protest by hundreds of offended Catholics, French demonstrators have destroyed two photographic works by artist Andres Serrano. The principal object of acrimony, “Immersion (Piss Christ)”, was a photograph of a crucifix submerged in the artist’s own urine and photographed with the purported aim of problematising the “misuse of religion”.
