have you heard about a crazy east-german doctor called gunther von haagen who plastinated a lot of cadavers and over the last decades has been exhibiting them at an exhibition called 'bodyworks'? i saw the exhibition in belgium about 7 years ago (before every city had one), in an abbatoir, no less. i can say it changed my life.
Hey Fruszi, Yeah, I saw that in London in 2003. Some pretty cheasy versions with a pole vaulter with his guts at the bottom of the pole (as one example) let the show down a bit. The rabbits represented solely by their plastinated veins were the highlight for me. He made an appearance on a Jamie Oliver junk food special a month or so ago. Just so you know. Cheers
