Art majors...

Aliza Shvarts, a senior art major at Yale, artificially inseminated herself "as often as possible" while periodically taking abortifacient drugs to induce miscarriages for her senior art project. The Yale Daily News has more details on Aliza Shvart's miscarriage art project. 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 display of Aliza Shvarts' project will feature a large cube suspended from the ceiling of a room in the gallery of Green Hall. Shvarts will wrap hundreds of feet of plastic sheeting around this cube; lined between layers of the sheeting will be the blood from Shvarts' self-induced miscarriages mixed with Vaseline in order to prevent the blood from drying and to extend the blood throughout the plastic sheeting. Aliza Shvarts will then project recorded videos onto the four sides of the cube. These videos, captured on a VHS camcorder, will show her experiencing miscarriages in her bathrooom tub, she said. Similar videos will be projected onto the walls of the room.

I hope she still feels clever when some nutjob shoots her dead at her exhibition.

Repost.

I should probably do a search instead of scanning thread titles next time. :\

Well isn't that something...

Don't worry about it, it was a rather obscure title I made for it.

That...seems...un-good?

And to think my wife and I tried 8 ing years to have a child, and my mother had 4 miscarriages before I was born.

This will certainly not end well for that cunt. Sorry, I honestly can't think of a more hated, despised term for a woman at the moment.

I hope she gets stabbed.

You know what extreme pro-life Christians do to abortion clinics, just imagine what will happen next week when this abomination goes on display.

Wow, i don't envy the guy who marries her, if that happens. Sounds psycho.

Artsy fartsy!

I seriously hope someone kills that ing murdering bitch. I like art, but that isn't art. It's insane.

That is not art, it's disturbing. I shudder to think if any art teacher at this "premier" institution agreed with this project.

Posted as fake in my thread. Still incredible that someone would even lie about this. You have to have a ed up mind to even think this up.

What a er. I hope karma gets her.

The fake nature of the exhibition has been confirmed (from that Huffington Post link):

The New York Sun reports that Aliza Shvarts' artificial insemination and miscarriage art project is just "creative fiction." Yale University released a statement this afternoon:

"Ms. Shvarts is engaged in performance art," a Yale spokeswoman, Helaine Klasky, said. "She stated to three senior Yale University officials today, including two deans, that she did not impregnate herself and that she did not induce any miscarriages. The entire project is an art piece, a creative fiction designed to draw attention to the ambiguity surrounding form and function of a woman's body."

Ms. Klasky went on to suggest that Yale would not have permitted a project of the sort described in the student newspaper. "Had these acts been real, they would have violated basic ethical standards and raised serious mental and physical health concerns."

I don't know what to think of this. All I know is that there isn't one good ending to it.

Crazy ass art students.

It's bullshit. The art project was the reaction of everyone else. Although it resulted in shock from the majority of people, she has a right to do what she wants with her body.

I actually think that the majority of posters just respond to the first post they see instead of reading everything that's been said since then. Morons.
