Hey, keep in mind that I'm only the messenger here. I just couldn't pass up something this f*****g wierd.
BEIJING (Reuters) - A Chinese artist embroiled in a heated controversy over a show in which he apparently eats a dead baby says he feels no need to defend himself.
Zhu Yu, seated in a Beijing apartment dotted with photographs of the act, said it was his "responsibility" as an artist to spark debate about morality and art.
"An artist does not give answers, but possibilities," he told Reuters, hours before Britain's Channel 4 was to air a documentary in which the 32-year-old unmarried man shows off photographs of himself washing a dead stillborn baby in a sink and putting its dismembered parts in his mouth.
"When facing an issue, we must try to allow people's debate of an issue to produce a deeper discussion," Zhu said Thursday.
"Only if people did not curse it, did not detest it, would there be something wrong. They are right to scold."
Don't tell me there wasn't a pizza place open?!?
