Artist Gregor Schneider has German politicians and art curators up in arms, according to reports.
He's been actively searching for a terminally ill person to feature in his new exhibit.
The volunteer would spend his/her dying hours in an art gallery so the public can 'admire' the way some light plays on the flesh of a person gasping for the last breath.
Just like Abortion Girl's 'art' - we think that Schneider's death exhibit is just plain WRONG!!
An influential German gallery owner Beatrix Kalwa spoke for many German curators who rule out the idea of giving space to Schneider’s exhibit.
She says, “Existential matters like death, birth or the act of reproduction do not belong in a museum. There is a fundamental difference between portraying these acts in an art form, and showing them in actuality.”
Well, we would be okay with seeing people having sex in a museum!
