Danish Jews hired infamous Jewish bad taste 'artist' Marco Evaristti, notorious for exhibiting live goldfish in blenders and serving meatballs made from his own body fat. But since the Israelites started worshipping the Golden Calf the minute Moses turned his back, I suppose we shouldn't be surprised at the lack of good taste in picking artist and material this time either. Who is really perpetuating stereotypes here?

80% Pure Jewish Gold
Gold teeth from holocaust victims were used in the 'work of art' Rolexgate, according to Jewish-Chilean 'artist' Marco Evaristti.
The expensive model of the entrance gate to the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp can be seen on 'Auschwitz-Day' January 27. According to the Jewish magazine Goldberg 80% of the gold comes from 'Jews and other minorities who ended up in the gas chambers'.
When 'Rolexgate' was exhibited for the first time in Berlin, it was removed because of the public's reaction to the controversial work of art.
Now it is shown for the second time; this time in Denmark where the 'work of art' can be seen for three hours in the Art Gallery Nikolai in Copenhagen January 27, 2010.
The exhibition contains amongst others an about one meter long model of the entrance of the Auschwitz-Birkenau camp.
It is made of 2.3 kilos of gold of which 80% comes from the gold teeth which were the Nazis pulled from their victims before they ended in the gas chambers. [NOTE sentence literally translated from KD - In this version the Nazis didn't even wait until the victims were dead; they pulled out their teeth even before killing them!]
The Chilean 'artist' Marco Evaristti, in Denmark mainly known for exhibiting goldfish in blenders at the Trapholt museum in Kolding, has created the exhibition.
According to the Jewish culture magazine Goldberg Marco Evaristti, who has Jewish roots, that about one year ago, he was presented to an Austrian man who sold Nazi memorabilia from the Second World War.
Gold teeth in glass jar
The gold teeth were standing in a glass jar between uniforms and other 'wartime loot' in a big barn.
Apart from reminding the world of the horrors of the extermination camps Evaristti also wants to point at greed.
Therefore the tower is equipped with a Rolex watch which has stopped at five minutes to twelve.
Also belonging to the exhibition is a set of rails and a train carriage in white gold with 11 karat diamonds.
In the carriage sculls of red gold are looking out of the window. According to the magazine Goldberg in order to show that time cannot erase the past: diamonds are forever.
Grandmother's teeth
The Auschwitz entrance also contains teeth from Evaristti's grandmother. She survived the extermination camp, so Evaristi has according to himself, not bought, but inherited them.
