Art Appreciation Lecture

Going to Art 101 this past thursday, made me very aggrivated. We were shown a photograph of a piece of art that was a Christ being Crucified structure put into a bottle of urine. The artist took a picture of this and called it "Piss Christ". Do you honestly call this art? Art to me is something that took alot of talent and time. Something like a painting would be considered art to me. Putting a figurei into a jar of urine is not art. That didnt take anytime and any talent. That was my first issue. My second issue is that why would you be so disrespectful as to place a figure of Christ on the cross in a jar of urine knowing that you had other options. The artist could have put food coloring in water to make it the yellowish color and then took the picture getting the same affect. This just aggrivates me that someone would stoop that low to get attention.
