Abortion = Art????
Filed under: Icky Icky Poo > Wacky, Tacky & TrueSometimes people use the excuse of "art" in order to get away with craziness!
Aliza Shvarts, a Yale art major, has done something different for her senior art project this year.
The "artist" has documented herself throughout a 9 month process where she artificially inseminated herself and then periodically took abortifacient drugs in order to induce miscarriages.
The exhibit, which will begin next Tuesday, will include video recordings of the forced miscarriages.
WTF?!?!?! Ewwww!!!!!
It will also include preserved samples of the blood during the process.
According to Shvarts, her goal was to "spark conversation and debate on the relationship between art and the human body."
Students have expressed shock upon hearing of the exhibit. Rightfully so!
Shvarts insists that her art isn't for shock value. Liar. She says, "I hope it inspires some sort of discourse. Sure, some people will be upset with the message and will not agree with it, but it's not the intention of the piece to scandalize anyone."
As for the "donors", she claims they were not paid for their "services". She also claims to have required them to periodically take tests for STDs, though did not want to disclose the number of sperm donors used.
As for the medical risk related to multiple abortions, Shvarts says she was not worried. She said the abortifacient drugs she took were herbal and legal, and decided she didn't need to consult a doctor.
IDIOT!!!!!
What if she's caused herself serious and permanent damage????
At least this "artist" has one fan. Juan Castillo, another senior art major, said he was intrigued by the beauty of her project. He says, "I really loved the idea of this project, but a lot other people didn't. I think that most people were very resistant to thinking about what the project was really about. [The senior-art-project forum] stopped being a conversation on the work itself."
As for the actual exhibit, Schvarts will feature a large cube hanging from the ceiling. Wrapped around that cube will be hundreds of feet of plastic sheeting which will be lined with her blood from the miscarriages.
Ewwww!!!!
The old blood will be mixed with vaseline to prevent it from drying.
Double EWWWWWW!!!
She will also project the recorded videos of herself, showing the miscarriages she had in her bathtub, onto the sides of the cube.
Similar footage will also be projected onto the walls of the room.
We're starting to get a bit queezy!
This is TOO MUCH!!!!!!
Shvarts adds, "It was a private and personal endeavor, but also a transparent one for the most part. This isn't something I've been hiding." Adding, that she believes "strongly that art should be a medium for politics and ideologies, not just a commodity. I think that I'm creating a project that lives up to the standard of what art is supposed to be."
We're all for a woman's right to choose, but this is abusing that right.
We don't know what to think anymore.
What do U think?
this women…is a disguting piece of shit!
To bad she wasn't fucking aborted
wtf, horeeeee!!!!!!!!. no puedo creerlo, que venga aqui, a Puerto Rico, que el pueblo la lincha. Esa es una puta loca, desgracia. tantas mujeres que no pueden tener hijos y la loca los mata. ojala y lo intente otra vez, pero que se desangre, seria un final espectacular. suciaaaaa!!!!
She has some guts
Anyone who would create life with the intent to kill it should be killed themselves!!!!
I had a miscarriage in February and am still grieving that loss. This is not making a statement. She's mentally ill. Miscarriage is a tragic loss, not art. I would be 5 months pregnant now and still think about it daily.
this is so horrible!!!!! this girl shoud go to jail or burned alive!!! this is macabre!!!!
wacko, who would do that besides someone crazy in the head
THIS IS FUCKED UP. SHE NEEDS TO BE LOCKED UP.
this girl is a mess. I'm a Yale student and as far as I'm concerned we're all revolted. the faculty idiot who approved her project is gonna be sacked. this crazyo wanted publicity, not political art.
wait…. she goes to Yale for this???? WTF?? wow, what a waste of her parents $$$
why couldn't she hurt herself or like cut off her ear like Vincent Van Gogh he is well known today why did she have to hurt something else just to make a point LOSER
For someone to purposely take advantage of the most beautiful gift on earth totally disgusts me for starters … But people like her in general just PISS ME THE FUCK OFF!! People like me and a couple of my friends who are COMPLETELY UNABLE to get pregnant and want children soooooooo bad can't have them but yet STUPID BITCHES like her can have 50 and throw them all away!! I don't get it!! She needs somone to knock some sense into her. How in the hell do you consider this art?? If anything a child being born is the most beautiful form of art in the entire world!!!!
ke c muera la madita perra… su madre deberiua haberla abortado!
Its sounds like a pro life message shes trying to get accross except shes not being creative enough to be able to deliver the same message by bypassing the killing of life.
Fucking gross
im not even gona read this article, the title alone is justification to throw this nutcase in jail, and revoke her right to be an "artist". This sounds like an example of femminism run rampant and cleary shows its faults plain and simple….fuckin unbelievable.
That is insane. I'm Pro-Choice, but that is taking it way too far. Do the "donors" know what this freak has been doing? Who would donates sperm in order for the fetus to be terminated? Also, why would Yale allow someone to exhibit their own blood? This is just disgusting. This woman seriously needs mental health counseling…
This has got to be a hoax! "Plastic sheeting lined with her blood." She can be arrested for exposing people to a biological hazard. Who said that Yale has some of the smartest students in the country? I for one don't believe it.
ABORTION IS WRONG. IT IS NOT AN ART FORM. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING.
I reeeallly hope that there is something in the law that states what she did is illegal and her ass receives consecutive sentences for each miscarriage she intentionally committed!
That is not to say that being pro-choice should bear such consequences… I do NOT mean that at all… I just mean to say that her SPECIFIC acts not only cross the line but piss on it too!
She is a disgrace not only to women but to all of humankind!
ATTENTION WHORE… probably a pathetic artist who will stop at no end to become recognized. She sure is recognized alright.. as the most illogical fucking idiot around!
Yep. A woman's right to choose what? Murder is the answer. Abortion is a selfish choice, and more and more abortionists are starting to resent women who seek their services. I know of several women who have had multiple abortions. They are all a bunch of selfish spoiled brat bitches. They did it for school, men, $$, and cars. CUNTS!
How is this 'abusing' women's right to abortion? I wouldn't want to do that to my body, but no one has the right to tell her she doesn't.
She might be in danger of being attacked by crazy christians.
I just can't understand why you would use the abortion clinic as your birth control. Condoms are always available.
I hope this girl DID do permanent damage to her organs so that she can never reproduce. This is disgusting. i am pro-choice…but this sounds like the work of an extremist.
This story brought tears to my eyes! My fiance and I just found out we can't even have kids because I have a bad uterus and this bitch is given the opportunity to have children just so she can kill them? I hope it kills her
With 4000 abortions a day they wonder why people get upset with them. They wonder why the RTL movement is gaining steam. Women need to keep hei panties on. It's not that hard.
I think thats just wrong. It's one thing to have an abortion in a case of accidental pregnancy but to do this and then expose it to evyone is just too sick for words!!
Re: Gee – Hey genius, A cumshot isn't a million abortions, since a female egg has not been fertilized.
When did murder become a form of art to be exhibited?!? She should be ashamed of herself…she sounds like the next Dr.Kavorkian to me!
I am 6 weeks pregnant…enjoying a symptom-free pregnancy. no headache..no morning sickness..no pain… and i just threw up for the 1st time after reading this, and my stomach is in knots. Congratulations sweetheart… You sure did spark conversation. You now have a whole country discussing how much of an ass you are. But does it count that its not about "art"??? Wasnt that the point of this "project"? Nobody is talking about "Art and the Human body" everyone is talking about abortion. Seems to me your project was a failure.
As a first time mother to be and also an artist, I can tell this idiot has no regard for either art or the human body much less life itself. Im guessing she was influenced by the late artist Ana Mendieta with works depicting rape. I hope someday she will realize the monstosity she has done, and that her concious would make her suffer greatly!!!
what about the woman who try so hard to have a baby then they miscarriage. Its devastating for them and shes doing it deliberately. its disgusting
Re: Patrick M –
what?
Family planning…
This is the sickest thing I have ever read! I think this was not even close to a woman's right to choose…she intentionally got pregnant and then committed murders! It is one thing to have an abortion from an unintended pregnancy, and though I personally wouldn't that is an individual choice. This on the otherhand is disgusting! And beyond the issues…the description of the so called artwork is also disgusting!
IT'S TOO BAD SHE DIDN'T ACCIDENTALLY KILL HERSELF!!
That is just messed up. Sick. SICK fricking girl.
CHARGE HER FOR MURDER
This is disgusting.~
ABORTIONS ARE WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
its killing an innocent life!
This makes me sick. Shes a disgrace to the human race. This si VERY disturbing to read. Shame on her for playing with life just for the sake of "art."
Re: Kate – you're as sick as her!
This disgusts me! Maybe the disgusting over educated queer mole should have considered that people that are trying to have babies and can't or people that continuously miscarry and don't want to will be offended. I would love her to explain her art to my friend that had a still born, if she wants to talk about it, lets talk!!!
ummmm why is yale even considering this as an acceptable project? how unsanitary to have her crazy ass blood all up in a showroom and then her killing child after child…yeah yale is sending a great message.
fucking sick ass bitches
She may as well be the devil on earth. I hope that if and when the day comes and she really wants a child to keep it SHE DOESNT GET ONE. I hope she goes to the doctor and they tell her that she cant bare children due to the fact that she took these "herbs". It hurts my heart to hear this. I have a child and i also had a misscarriage and it was the worst thing ive ever had to endure. Poor babies. How anyone could think of that as art, i have yet to even phathom. and how did this chick get into Yale????!!!
Heartless bitch!
I think any and all grants or granted monies, public OR private, to the Yale "art" Department should be pulled immediately. As far as I am concerned, my inclination to association intelligence with name Yale has just been nearly eliminated. Allowing this to go any further than the “I have this idea” stage shows a HUGE lack of social responsibility on behalf of ANY one whom did not attempt to quash the entire horrible artless thought. The destruction of life has been shown throughout the ages, however, I can’t think of any other instance where the actual murder of (an) individual(s) purely for the sake of “art” has been or would ever be tolerated. If it is art she wishes, perhaps she will appreciate that fact that most will view this as the portrait of an emotional disturbed mind.
What a fucking BITCH, she should die herself. I hope somemone kicks her fucking ass, I even more wish that I bumped into her so I could fucking do a number on her & hopefully she would die.
i'm a medical student. giving yourself so many miscarriages can cause a lot of problems, especially if you're just doing it yourself without a doctor. bleeding that much can cause anemia, loss of iron, etc. i don't know what 'herbal' and 'legal' drugs/mechanisms she is using, but I really hope she didn't do any permanent damage.
she is talking about the disconnect women have with thier bodies. They dont own the, government, hospitals, nosy neighbors, etc owns them. Any decison they make is OVER criticized. That was the point.
Read her rebuttal!
This woman is a very, sad, sad person!!! To think of all the people who try to get pregnant and have a baby who can't. She just goes ahead and used her body like its nothing. What a shame this person is to society. A total disregard for human life!!
That is so sick! I hope something bad happens to her from doing that shit to herself she deserves to hemorage and fucking die! I believe in a womans right to choose if its medically necessary but this is beyond any spectrum of understanding. I am only 27 and had to do IVF to get pregnant and it was a hard long journey for me so this absolutely makes me sick! I hope they can find some charges against her thats pretty much pre meditated murder for what she did. Someone should look into that!
Well, Besides the pure gross factor and the severe medical risk to herself there isn't anything really…wrong with it. But it's disgusting and dangerous, I'll giver you that. I certainly wouldn't go to see that exhibit. but hey, w/e floats your boat.
She is someone who after reading what she's done, I would feel absolutely no remorse for if someday she really tries to have a child and can't. She doesn't deserve that gift, she doesn't even deserve her own murdering life. Too bad her mother thought not to abort.
I heard about this exhibit a few months ago and can't wait to go see it. I am a huge fan of Aliza's work. I'll be there on opening night. I think the message this exhibit will express will be very powerful and will bring awareness on so many different levels.
That is just WRONG! She should be ASHAMED that she INTENTIONALLY KILLED ALL OF THOSE BABIES!! SHE'S A HORRIBLE WOMAN, WHO DOESN'T DESERVE LIFE HERSELF!! I HOPE SHE BURNS IN HELL!
sadly, it is people like this who hurt our argument for a woman's right to choose. this is precisely the type of lunacy that the right-wing will latch on to … how terribly, terribly sad. for her. for us.
She is a murder in my eyes,,, I normally keep my views on abortion to myself, but in this case,, making yourself have miscarriages is just disgusting,, it is beyond immoral,,, legal action need to be taken against her,,,, some anti abortion group is gonna be all over her,,,, as dr.seuse says "a person is a person no matter how small"
what is with people passing off killing innocent beings for art!? like the dog that was just starved for an art exhibit. i dont get it.
some people argue that they are showing this "art" to try and prove a point to "save" these beings in the future. wtf!? so you kill so save?
we already know what abortion does to your body and what it does to the fetus, that is what scientists are for. not 'artists'.
way to go for causing controversy and getting some attention, i only hope that your intentions are somewhat good? even after aborting several innocent lives.
you know that those were lives right? not just blood clots…
f*ckin loser
No one's asking you to go out and do it.
There is a reason she is at YALE and not community college.
Has she not achieved her goal?…although you are all disgusted, 2267 of you have been moved enough to comment. I think that may be one of the highest "comment" responses I have seen on PerezHilton.com
WE…yes YOU… are the art….she needs to do nothing more ( and most likely never intended to.)
Hum……
Re: Kate –
Hey Kate.. um FUCK YOU! YOUR AS FUCKED UP IN THE HEAD AS SHE IS. HOW BOUT I KILL YOU AND PRETEND ITS ART.
You will never be an art star……stop publicizing this shit. ARTISTS SHOULD BE ASHAMED THAT STUDENTS LIKE HER THINK THIS IS ART. Yes art should create a dialogue and yes art should push the envelope but come on aborting fetus's and starving dogs like that other arsehole get real. She should abort her art career and the other guy should cage himself and starve himself to death.
shibbs
Sad to think all this wacky notion of what art is leads to this desperate — and obviously untalented — woman to do this. True talent is about inspiring others, not disgusting them. What in God's name must other countries think of us????
Absolutely disgusting…and I presume no one considers it a crime because this air headed moron calls it "art"….so if someone decides to hit someone with their car and puts it on a wall with a frame they get away with murder because it is now "art"…..alright…theres a pretty little white padded room with a straight jacket waiting JUST for HER
I think she's effing insane. The end.
completely f'd up. this chick needs serious mental help. big time. f**king psycho b*tch
Just so no one loses too much sleep over this: The project is in terrible taste, and bad art. That being said, it is fiction. She didn't "artificially inseminate herself as much as possible" and didn't induce any abortions. She made a few videos and a Matthew Barney wannabe sculpture. And, of course, will probably have a solo show in Chelsea within 4 months…
I think that as women it is our right to choose, but making yourself pregnant just to kill the life inside of you in the name of art should be illegal
Re: JR –
Lol, your an idiot. You are one of those people this country would love to kick in the face. If you think it is so artistic why dont you go and make some baby aborting art….freak
fucking disgusting! rooooot in hell you jackass!!
discusting attention seeking whore
i can't even wrap my mind around this. It's disgusting. Her actions should be treated as criminal. Purposely impregnating herself and performing multiple abortive acts should warrant jail time. While abortion is legal, is it legal to intentionally get pregnant in order to kill a baby…can't that be considered premeditated murder? Something needs and should be done.
I think she is a f-in nut job and needs mental help.
what on earth was she thinking? this world carries too many people with sick minds. this is horrible. absolutely disgusting.
i think this article is sick. human life is not a game to spark controversy. It should be respected and this person't mindset is OFF and she is now responsible for murder. Studies show SCIENTIFICALLY that life starts at conception and this is SICK. People are so worked up about animal rights, what about our own children!!!
Im all for free choice, but good lord this is taking it a bit too far. When you create life just to turn around and destroy it over and over there is seriously something fucked up in your head. I hope she's never able to procreate….we dont need anymore of her in this world.
Last time I checked art made people happy and want to be a part of it, This is disgusting. No One wants to be a part of someone murdering mulitple lives.
DUMBASS PSYCHO!!!!!!!
Re: Jenna Mitchell – you should really shut the fuck up. yooou are the pretentious one for thinking this is art. why dont you look at the bigger picture and realize what an imbicile this whore is. he wears prada. she wears old navy. he eats at koi. she eats at mcdonalds. yeah real gruesome isnt it? almost as gruesome as someone who purposely impregnates herself just to have the child die…for the sake of an art project….children for art! woo hoo! shut the fuck up and get your twisted head back on straight. this is murder.
mic is SCANDALEOUS
for all you idiots who think it's okay to get an abortion: my mom was given up for adoption in 1960 only bc her mother was too far along to get an abortion. Let's do the math..If my mom were adopted, I wouldn't be here! I wouldn't be married and be a successful woman. Neither would my mother. Having an abortion leads to generations being lost. Why do you get to play God?
i think it's bullshiz. Shvartz is the jewish equivalent of the N word! It can't be her real name! I bet it's all a hoax. Attention whore!
Your not God, so u wouldn't know when the person gets a sould. And when it comes to taking chances on murder, it's logically safer to take the safe choice. Your image of humanity and life is severley distorted! Loosing a child is horrible, i could not think of killing a baby. Many girls who have abortions commit suicide later b/c it hits them later.
whoa… and i thought i had a sick mind… i am speechless
I guess the abortion debate now took 5000 steps backward…
oh my gosh! i have been trying to concieve for 7 years now and we have a girl like this that has killed multiple babies! this makes me sick!
abort her
she's nothing less of a muderer
Getting pregnant naturally and getting an abortion is one thing..but INDUCING pregnancy for the PURPOSE of termanating it?! SHE SHOULD BE KICKED OUT OF YALE THIS IS NOT ART ITS MURDER! Someone needs to fucking charge this sick cunt she seriously is mentally unstable to think of this, not to mention to go through with it!
"ewww"? what's really disgusting and wrong with the world is our sick obsession with mind-numbing celebrity stalking sites like this one, so when somebody does something meaningful and thought provoking for once, all you mindless morons go "ewww".
I'd hardly call this art, this is a sick game she's playing…I wonder how people that have actually had miscarriages would feel about this >=(
I HOPE SHE DID LOTS OF DAMAGE TO HER BODY I HOPE SHE DID SO MUCH THAT SHE CAN NOT MURDER ANYMORE CHILDREN SHE DESERVES TO ROT IN HELL MURDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She obviously has something wrong with her. I mean like a screw loose or something. I think it's horrible what she's doing. Some people can't have babies and here she is getting rid of them. Sick.
wtf is this this fuckery. Is she messed up in the head are something?
This article made me laugh. First of all, not only was the author totally biased, she appeared to have an approximate IQ of 9.
Second of all, this is america. We do whatever the hell we want. I think that this girl is innovative and daring, and I hope she carries through with it.
Re: meeg – that comment hit the nail on the mother fucking head!!!!!!!
I'm definitely pro-choice, but this is really, really wrong!!! Abortion should never be a form of birth control. What the hell was she thinking?? If she wanted conflict, now she has it!!
Re: Patrick M – Patrick go fuck yourself, you're just as demented.
what a horrible thing! i am pro chioce but this is just gross!
