I’m sure some readers have already seen the famous bodies of plastinated dead people on display, but would you pay to watch them have sex? Gunther von Hagens and his wife Angelina Whalley hope so.
Those already familiar with the couple’s Body Worlds exhibitions may or may not be surprised to learn of plans for a new show dedicated to sex. Sure the exhibit will undoubtedly make headlines around the world and stay in the public consciousness for a long time, but this is an extreme case where one person’s art is, well, something entirely different to another.
Will it be popular? Probably. Offensive to some? Absolutely. Stimulating to others? Let’s not go there…
What I’m most interested to find out is, when the ‘anatomy’ show rolls into town, would you consider going?
