ROME — The Florence museum housing Michelangelo’s Renaissance masterpiece the “David” invited parents and students from a Florida charter school to visit after complaints about a lesson featuring the statue forced the principal to resign.

Florence Mayor Dario Nardella also tweeted an invitation for the principal to visit so he can personally honor her. Confusing art with pornography was “ridiculous,” Nardella said.

Marla Stone, head of humanities studies at the American Academy in Rome, said the Florida incident was another episode in escalating U.S. culture wars and questioned how the statue could be considered so controversial as to warrant a prior warning.

“What we have here is a moral crusade against the body, sexuality, and gender expression and an ignorance of history,” Stone said in an email. “The incident is about fear, fear of beauty, of difference, and of the possibilities embedded in art.”

Michelangelo Buonarroti sculpted the “David” from 1501 to 1504 after being commissioned by the Cathedral of Florence. The statue is the showpiece of the Accademia, and helps draw 1.7 million visitors each year to the museum.

“It is incredibly sought-after by Americans who want to do selfies and enjoy the beauty of this statue,” Director Hollberg said.

Actually, here comes the part where the radical Left (you et al.) conflate pornography with art saying the former is the later in virtually all cases...

Art in my view is something that takes skill and creativity to create. If you or I can reproduce it, or get close, it isn't art. Porn isn't generally art because all it takes is a camera and some cash to pay a whore to let you take nude photos...

So a complex film requiring technical skill and creativity of people having graphic sex is art?

Nebulous word salad.

Porn is intended for sexual gratification.

Renaissance art is not meant for sexual gratification.

Except seemingly to some MAGA parents in Florida.
 
All these comments from those on the left who cannot tell the difference between a man and a woman. One just cannot make this shit up. No surprise why people are leaving the democrat party in droves.

"Caligula" is an art.

Funny. You don't understand art or pornography.
