Shalom Tomáš Neuman (born July 27, 1947 in Prague, Czechoslovakia) is a Czech- American artist, museum founder, and the driving force behind the visual arts concept of "fusionism".
[5] Neuman is a 2013 recipient of a Premio Galileo Giglio d'Oro award in art upon which occasion he produced a Fusionism event at the Teatro della Pergola in Florence.
[13] Neuman's work in the form of two signs spelling out "Shithole" and "Bullshit" were the source of some controversy in the city of Easton, Pennsylvania where he opened one of the FusionArts Museums.
Therein the artist placed two 10 foot long signs with bright yellow letters spelling out the phrases, "Shithole" and "bullshit" which Neuman suggested was a response to some of the profane terms the 45th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump has employed and specifically when the commander-in-chief said and “s---hole countries in Africa.
The city had received complaints and the pieces were placed directly across from a playground and the Easton Area School District's Cottingham Stadium, where football games are held.
