I think the artist has been given a lot of noteriaty around that subject…yes.

These are wonderful. Not sure on the pigs, but the tires are just amazing. Great work. Thanks for featuring Wim Delvoye.
I wonder if it effects the snow rating on the tyres… 🙂
I did a random search on wordpress and this was the first page that looked in any way interesting. I will be following this from now on, maybe it will help me with my artistic explorations!
They actually do not feel the pain according to the site as their nerve endings are different than ours…it is nevertheless, contraversial, yes.
