A smiling, life-sized sculpture of Barack Obama with a blue neon halo circling his head is seen earlier today in Chicago. The work by School of the Art Institute of Chicago senior David Cordero, made for his senior show, has the phones ringing at the Chicago school as word spreads of the undergrad’s work depicting Obama as a messianic figure.
