Immersion (Piss Christ) Wiki A 1987 photograph by the American artist and photographer Andres Serrano. It depicts a small plastic crucifix submerged in a small glass tank of the artist’s urine. The piece was a winner of the Southeastern Center for Contemporary Art’s “Awards in the Visual Arts” competition,[1] which was sponsored in part by the National Endowment for the Arts, a United States Government agency that offers support and funding for artistic projects.
I’m no urologist and maybe it’s just the photo, but I feel sorry for the person that pissed that piss.
Dude’s pissing lucazade
The Vatican recently opened a contemporary art wing and this artist was invited (he was apparently as surprised as anyone)

I remember learning about this in art history class in high school.
Controversial because the artist tried to fight anyone informing them that “piss shouldn’t be that colour” and “please go see a doctor immediately”, presumably.
Kinda reminds me of Taoism (love me some Taoism):
Master Tung Kuo asked Chuang Tzu, ‘That which is called the Tao, where is it?’ Chuang Tzu replied, ‘There is nowhere where it is not.’ ‘But give me a specific example.’ ‘In this ant,’ Said Chuang Tzu. ‘Is that it’s lowest point?’ ‘in this panic grass,’ said Chuang Tzu. ‘Can you give me a lower example?’ ‘In this common earthenware tile,’ Said Chuang Tzu. ‘This must be its lowest point!’ ‘it’ s in shit and piss too.’ Said Chuang Tzu.
