Stelarc's work (from Stelarc's website, http://www.stelarc.va.com.au/)
"Stelarc is an Australian performance artist whose works focus heavily on futurism and extending the capabilities of the human body." (from Wikipedia, on Stelarc, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stelarc)
Actually, I think it is quite disgusting when I saw some shots that showed he has done some action upon some organs like stomach. It is hard to accept those action and I can not imagine how he can do such work on his own body. When I see his work, I may think that he is challenging the limit of the human body. As the reference above said, he is focusing his work on futurism, he may tend to have different challenge towards the human body. Although his work is quite outstanding and can have many attention, it cannot be accepted by everyone.
