Then-German Chancellor Angela Merkel, left, and Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi speak during a press conference in front of Michelangelo's"David statue" in Florence, Italy, in 2015.
Carrasquilla believes the board targeted her after three parents complained about a lesson including a photo of the “David,” a 5-meter tall nude marble sculpture dating from 1504. The work, considered a masterpiece of the Italian Renaissance, depicts the Biblical David going to fight Goliath armed only with his faith in God.
Carrasquilla said in a phone interview Sunday that she is “very honored” by the invitations to Italy and she may accept. Cecilie Hollberg, director of the Galleria dell’Accademia, where the “David” resides, expressed astonishment at the controversy.
I always the that statue was a bit much.
Good...kids should not be shown adult content by teachers.
This is craziness. These conservative “Christians” minds must be blown knowing that God created the first couple….nude. Hope they don’t read Genesis.

Maybe the most incredible work of art ever made. Even more impressive in person. And shouldn't a 6th grader know what the human body looks like?
rhonda_harbison How is the human body porn? If Christians believe God created the human body should they not respect it and not denigrate it by calling it ‘porn’.
So beautifully Italian!
🤣😂😂 Said when I first heard about it. Those moronic, backwards parents couldn't survive Europe - there are 'naughty' (in their warped view) statues al over Europe. Their warped mind envisions the human body as something dirty and vile and something to be ashamed of.
