For those of us who never heard about Meat Dress or Jana Sterback here is the link:

http://www.snopes.com/spoons/noose/meatdrss.htm


in short:

"Unusual and unrefrigerated, Jana Sterbak's meat dress, 50 pounds of raw flank steaks stitched together and displayed on a hanger at the National Gallery, is causing a cultural flap in Canada.
Entitled "Vanitas: Flesh Dress for an Albino Anorectic," the exhibit was created by Montreal artist Sterbak to emphasize the contrast between vanity and bodily decay."


any other links related to this topic would be usefull,
so post them here.
