i remember there was a topic about extremes in art, but i couldnt find it !?
anyway, here's a performance by one of our "artists"...but this is not art to me, more like stupidity
he sticked our national symbol to his finger-nail and then pulled it out and attached it to a sculpture (half finger, half proteus), quite disgusting imo...

aaargh... i wish i hadn't opened this thread. That picture makes me feel sick :-s
One of my biggest fears has always been that one day i would hurt my finger in such a way that the nail would come off... it seems so painful!
(it happened once to my toe, and that was no picnic either, but atleast i could hide that in my shoe so i didn't have to look at it all day :-p Besides it was my smallest toe, and so a very small nail).

apperantly it was weird to see the performance live cos of the hole that appeared in his finger after he pulled the nail off - we couldnt see this on tv
i once broke a nail on my hand, only half of it tho...it happened about 15 years ago, and it is still visable - perhaps i should pull the whole thing out and then wait for it to grow again :)

this nail thing makes my fingers/nails hurt just by looking at it...
but the general idea of body art is interesting!

"weird to see the performance live cos of the hole that appeared in his finger"
I can imagine! That would really creep me out. I have no desire whatsoever to know what's underneath my fingernails. I just do not want to know :-p I don't know why that scares me so much... but it does.
And the pain... my god... the pain... sometimes it happens to me by accident that something sharp hurts me under one of my fingernails (in the front, where they connect to your skin), and it always hurts like nothing else. One of the most painful wounds i can imagine... brrr.
I probably would have fainted if I was in his live audience ;-)
"perhaps i should pull the whole thing out and then wait for it to grow again :)"
why? If it doesn't cause any problems why would you go through all that?
And even if you do decide to do it, please don't post any pictures of it ;-)

ouch... Body art is weird. I've also heard of some artist cutting off one of his fingers with an axe... all for the sake of art.
Somehow that fingernail-thing still seems like the most horrible one though ;-)

not sure what i would've picked...i guess i'd go for a nail pull off - he did it slowly and quite carefuly and he didnt seem to be in any pain
now if you cut off a finger there isnt much chance it would grow again :)

Hahaha, that bird made me "lol" :D
But i think the original pics are perfectly jusifiable as art. If rdj made music from his own screams of pain ripping off a fingernail there'd be no question. It's all a matter of how far the artist wants to take his idea... WHY he put himself through that is a whole other topic. Just cos it looks foul to people doesn't mean it's not art.
