McJesus Stirrs Controversy in the Holy Land
NEWS DESK | Haifa's art museum has come under fire for exhibiting a Finnish artist's depiction of McDonald's mascot Ronald McDonald crucified in the same position as Jesus. The art piece has sparked great controversy in the city, with Israel's Christian Arab community protesting — sometimes violently.
Story:
A fast-food clown nailed to a cross has united its Finnish creator with Holy Land Christians demanding the artwork's removal from an exhibition at an Israeli museum.
The controversy involves 'McJesus', a statue of a crucified Ronald McDonald by Jani Leinonen on display at the Haifa Museum of Art.
It, along with a figurine representing Jesus as a smiling crucified Ken doll, has raised the ire of members of the local Christian community, Israeli politicians, and that artists himself.
The works are part of 'Sacred Goods', an exhibition about consumerism running in the northern coastal city's museum since August.
Images of the exhibits began circulating on social media last week, and in a Friday demonstration outside the museum protesters wounded three police officers with stones.
Two molotov cocktails also hit the museum in recent days, police said.After a series of meetings with Christian leaders, the museum resolved to install signs warning of 'offensive content' at the exhibition's entrance, a spokeswoman for the institution said Monday.
The proposed solution, however, did not satisfy Christian leaders, who petitioned the Haifa district court to order the museum and municipality to remove 'McJesus' and 'Ken Jesus Christ' from public display.
Israel's culture minister Miri Regev stepped into the debate last week, sending a letter to the director of the museum protesting the exhibition after receiving complaints from many in the Christian community.
'Contempt for symbols sacred to religions and many believers around the world as an act of artistic protest is illegitimate and cannot be displayed in a cultural institution supported by state funds,' said Regev in the letter seen by Haaretz.
The works are part of an exhibition dealing with religion and faith in the culture of consumerism, the spokeswoman said.
'McJesus', created by a Christian artist, has been displayed 'in many European museums,' and 'is about the cynical use of religious symbols by giant corporations,' she added.
It shows how Ronald McDonald 'has become a symbol of popular culture, reaching the level of religious worship'.
But while 'McJesus' might be taken primarily as a critique of capitalism in other parts of the world, in the Middle East such visual imagery was blasphemous, said Wadie Abunassar, advisor to church leaders in the Holy Land.
'We're not in Europe, we're in Israel,' said Abunassar. 'To us, as Arabs and Christians, this is an affront to our symbols, and we demand their removal.'

Haifa Museum Exhibit Shows 1948 Arab-Israeli War Narratives
DAILY DOSE | The 1948 Arab-Israeli War feels like a triumph for the Jews who won it and established a country. But what about the Palestinian narrative? This Haifa exhibit is showing the two narratives side-by-side. Our Daniel Campos has the story.
Story:
Haifa — the utopian city with a great reputation of coexistence between Jews and Arabs. For the outside visitor, the story of pain and violence that took place here in 1948 is hard to imagine.
‘Haifa is one of the most interesting case studies: The city was captured on the 22nd of April. It gave the Jewish forces motivation and the feeling of victory. The city was captured in one day with a few fights taking place,’ co-curator of the exhibition ‘1948’ Inbar Dror Lax explains. ‘Yet, on the other hand, there is a lot of discussion on what happened with the Arabs, did they leave or were they expelled?’
‘1948’, at the Haifa city museum, tells the story of the conflict that took place in the northern Israeli port city, through art.
The story of the conflict in the city is complicated. The mayor of Haifa at the time, Shabtai Levy, and his adviser, Abba Hushi, called on the Arabs to stay in their homes and not to leave the city. Yet, on the other hand, fighting in the city continued, and people fled.
‘My family was affected by the war. Some were expelled — my mother fled to Lebanon and was only able to return two years later,’ exhibit co-curator Majd Hamra explains. ‘Haifa was no longer the same for my uncle Abed Abdi, who lived in refugee camps until he was able to return to Haifa; Things were no longer the same and this became the inspiration of his art.’
In 1948, Haifa was a mixed city with an estimated population of 135,000, split between Palestinian Jews, numbering at 70,000 and Palestinian Arabs, numbering at 65,000.
According to historical estimates, by mid-May only 4,000 from the pre-conflict population estimate of 65,000 Palestinian Arabs remained.
‘In this exhibition, you will find works that are difficult for both of us; we wanted to have a discussion through the art we selected, we want the viewer to come in and feel what we felt, Lax explains. ‘We want them to feel our doubts, and uncertainty.’
‘Many people have talked about 1948. I wanted to give a voice to those in the shade of history — the unheard voices — I wanted people here and around the world to hear what they have to say about 1948,’ Hamra says.
Will the people of Haifa be forever trapped in memory? Victory, destruction, displacement, death, forgiveness, healing, mourning. ‘1948’ will be on display until April 28th at the Haifa city Museum.

Haifa isreal
Haifa is a northern Israeli port city built in tiers extending from the Mediterranean up the north slope of Mount Carmel. The city’s most iconic sites are the immaculately landscaped terraces of the Bahá'í Gardens and, at their heart, the gold-domed Shrine of the Báb. At the foot of the gardens lies the German Colony, with shops, galleries and restaurants in 19th-century buildings.
In the hilltop Carmel district, the Louis Promenade provides panoramic views. On the western edge of Mount Carmel, the Stella Maris Monastery has a 19th-century church known for its colorful interior. Near the monastery is an aerial cable car that travels down to the Bat Galim Beach Promenade, where you can stroll and dine along the waterfront. Along the western coast, Dado Beach is popular. Elsewhere, the Haifa Museum of Art exhibits contemporary works, and the Israel National Museum of Science, Technology and Space presents interactive displays.
Many travelers visit Haifa's beaches and gardens during the hot, dry summer (May–Sep). Winter (Dec–Feb) is mild and rainy. The long-running Haifa International Film Festival (Sep/Oct) showcases popular, arthouse and documentary cinema, and includes open-air screenings. Staged in the Wadi Nisnas neighborhood, the Holiday of Holidays (late-Nov–Dec) is an arts, music and family-oriented festival celebrating harmony among Haifa's many faiths.

Installation
In this installation, the artist evokes the situation of exiles who fail at the gates of Europe by crossing the Mediterranean, which has become an immense cemetery.
From colored plastic bags (known as Tati bags), used mainly by African migrants exiled in Europe, the artist manufactures child-like boats which she superimposes on transparent crystal canvas.
The idea of making boats of simplistic shape and different sizes with these bags, refers to the precariousness of the boats used by the exiles, ready to do anything to survive.
The Wave created by the superposition of the transparent canvas gives a movement and depth to the work in which the artist allows us to imagine the boats both buried under the sea and those who arrive as best we can to cross the gates of Europe.
