German artist Gunther von Hagens and Corpse Factory
I recently read an article about the German artist Gunther von Hagens, who displays real human bodies with their skin stripped off as a work of art, and plans on creating a factory in a small town in Poland, near the German border, to mass produce his art. The art in itself is just odd and disgusting, and for instance one of von Hagens displays, which was “the corpse of a pregnant woman, complete with a dissection of her womb.” This just seems wrong and unnatural, and as most people would agree, this has lead to von Hagens has being tried in several countries for breaching laws about dealing with corpses.
