BODIES 2.0
Last evening, I was walking down my local promenade in Santa Monica and noticed a new temporary exhibit opened to the public in one of the many vacant retail spaces. It happened to be the second iteration of the fairly successful BODIES exhibition where w...
Yes indeed. Extremely questionable work…
And highly inappropriate in my own view. It reminds me of some horrifying experiments made in WW2 for the so called advance of science.
