The man treated nuns as sex slaves. It says a lot about the Vatican, none of it good, that his wretched art was still being celebrated long after this was revealed, and that his punishment, such as it will be, is put off indefinitely.

Has anyone figured out how this one man ever managed to corner the market for ugly, bug-eyed mosaics in churches all over the world?
In Italy, and the United States, and everywhere else, his peculiar style has covered the walls of more Catholic buildings than Michelangelo ever dreamed of.
Even without the accusations of immoral behavior, this artist doesn’t seem to merit the amount of business he got in the Catholic art market.
I do not like his pictures at all. Are there really ao few artists looking for work? Where is the competition?
And, yes, the news has been awfully slow.
