Plastinated human bodies in flagrante delicto


By now, people around the world have become used to the periodic provocations emanating from the plastinated human corpses displayed by Gunther von Hagens. But he may have outdone himself in a new Berlin exhibition.

...beginning this week in Berlin, they can be seen "caught in the act"... The traveling exhibition called "The Cycle of Life" will feature a plastinated man and woman displayed in mid-copulation

The paper quoted von Hagens as saying the display "teaches the visitors more than any biology class, revolutionizing the study of anatomy. It has nothing to do with pornography and isn't intended to be sexually stimulating!"
