art. is. beautiful. electrifying and progressive. oh so not murderous. truth exemplified. how glorious. humble and modern. glory, glory, glory.

Art major Aliza Shvarts '08 wants to make a statement.
Beginning next Tuesday, Shvarts will be displaying her senior art project, a documentation of a nine-month process during which she artificially inseminated herself "as often as possible" while periodically taking abortifacient drugs to induce miscarriages. Her exhibition will feature video recordings of these forced miscarriages as well as preserved collections of the blood from the process.
The goal in creating the art exhibition, Shvarts said, was to spark conversation and debate on the relationship between art and the human body. But her project has already provoked more than just debate, inciting, for instance, outcry at a forum for fellow senior art majors held last week. And when told about Shvarts' project, students on both ends of the abortion debate have expressed shock . saying the project does everything from violate moral code to trivialize abortion.
But Shvarts insists her concept was not designed for "shock value."

P.S. - reports are out that it is a hoax. let's hope not.
It's a hoax, as anyone with enough working brain cells can figure out. I'm not sure hoax is the right word, she's building a false history and context for the final exhibition to be viewed in. More like a staged work than hoax. Dude, think about it- nobody can, with regularity, artificially inseminate themselves and actually become pregnant. Let alone induce abortions with regularity through some herbal mixture.
democrats suck!!!!!
