The first piece reminds me of the "BODIES" exhibition in New York, which I and everyone else in my AP Biology class saw ourselves several years ago. While none of the cadavers on display were--to public knowledge--murdered, their origins (an unknown number of them may have been Chinese political prisoners, and if I remember correctly most of them appeared to be Asian) made the whole thing seem like a mockery of death. The fact that the exhibit literally consisted of flayed, chopped-up corpses who once were living individuals made its popularity all the more disturbing.
