Corpse Show Opens in Beijing
|
14-Jan-2004 - |
Featuring everything from complete human corpses to nerves, organs and fingers, the controversial Body Worlds exhibition has opened in Beijing. The display, put together by German anatomist Guenther von Hagens, features 10 plasticised human bodies displayed alongside nearly 200 chemically treated body parts. It will run for the next three months at the Beijing Natural History Museum. The exhibition of human corpses has been touring the world for several years. Wherever it appears it provokes a strong, and often negative, reaction from the public. Some people think the commercial use of bodies is unacceptable. Others say if the function of this exhibition is to educate people, it should be free to the public. A group of schoolchildren who stumbled upon the exhibition yesterday during a class outing to the museum were unfazed by the surreal displays. They moved through the hall, barely stopping to give them a second glance. |
