Artists Emiliano Paolini, left, and Marianela Perelli, pose for a photo while holding their Ken and Barbie doll,s respectively, dressed as religious figures, in Rosario, Argentina, Friday, Oct. 10, 2014. Paolini and Perelli had planed to exhibit 33 unique pieces of the fashion dolls on Saturday. The provocative art exhibit that features the dolls as religious figures such as the Virgin Mary and her boyfriend Ken as a crucified Jesus Christ has been canceled amid complaints and threats by angry believers, creators of the collection said Friday.
