Wim Delvoye

M. Delvoye was new to me, so I looked him up. He is Belgian, but apparently lives in China and tattoos pigs, which is not permitted in Belgium.

I understand Mr. Draker has tattooed a pig or two.

On the other hand, the works i have seen by this artist are challenging and thought provoking

He is a new name to me as well. I liked the work Steven presented enough that I'm going to look up Delvoye to see what else he's done.

This artwork is exposed at the Louvre as well.
