Rutgers 대학 Removes Controversial Art Exhibit of 예수님 on a Dartboard 

An art piece which displayed Jesus stabbed with four darts on a dartboard was taken down after students and alumni voiced their outrage.

A piece of art in the Rutgers University library caused controversy this week after students complained it was offensive and disrespectful.

The piece “Virtruvian Man” — which displayed Jesus stabbed with four darts on a dartboard, rather than a crucifix — was posted to Facebook and people demanded it be taken down.

"It is surprising that a state university would allow this," Natalie Caruso wrote on April 20. "I asked them to take it down because I found it disrespectful and they refused. How is this acceptable!?"

More than 100 commenters agreed with Caruso\'s point, while others defended by saying "it\'s art."

"Everyone saying \'its just art\' sound ignorant," Manpreet Kaur commented.

Another commenter, Amber Minnick, gave the artists "props" and said they succeeded by getting people talking and debating their work.

“Beautiful work, it truly speaks to me as an atheist who was brought up Christian,” Jimmy Palmer wrote.

The artwork was removed from the library on April 21 by campus officials following the slew of complaints.

"The artwork in question was removed from the exhibit because it did not meet Rutgers University Libraries policy, which requires art exhibitions and their pieces to be based on university events, curricular offerings and topics of interest to the university community," Jessica Pellien, director of communications at Rutgers University Libraries, told NJ.com.

The dartboard was not the only questionable piece of art up for display in the Rutgers Art Library.

Other pieces included a condom-covered stack of coins and a milk carton featuring Anne Frank titled "Cute Kids Make Good Advertising," NJ.com reported.

No names are attached to the art pieces and University officials did not out the artist.
