C4 to show artist eating dead baby

Jamie Wilson
Monday December 30, 2002
The Guardian

Channel 4 was yesterday back in the dock over plans to broadcast a programme showing a performance artist eating the flesh of a dead baby.

The documentary, Beijing Swings, which looks at the extreme practices of some artists in China, also shows a man drinking wine that has had an amputated penis marinaded in it.

The programme, which has been condemned by the Chinese embassy in London, will be broadcast on Thursday night. A spokesman for Channel 4 said last night: "The programme will be controversial and will shock some viewers but a warning will be given before it goes out on air."

The documentary shows stills of Zhu Yu, the artist, biting into the body of a stillborn infant. He says: "No religion forbids cannibalism. Nor can I find any law which prevents us from eating people. I took advantage of the space between morality and the law and based my work on it."

Zhu, who is a Christian, says religion has had a major impact on his work.

But the Tory MP Ann Widdecombe, said: "Jesus Christ said suffer the little ones to come unto me, not that they should be eaten for public entertainment. This programme sounds hideous."

Judaism forbids cannibalism:

Quote:
The LORD said to Moses and Aaron, "Say to the Israelites: 'Of all the animals that live on land, these are the ones you may eat: You may eat any animal that has a split hoof completely divided and that chews the cud.'"
Humans neither have a split hoof nor do they chew the cud, so they are unclean.

Since the guy is a Christian, I suppose he can appeal to Peter's dream where God tells him not to call unclean what He has made clean. All the same, I have a feeling God wouldn't be too happy about this.

sarcasm sometimes does not come across well in print....

Well If the baby was alive that would be something. But a dead baby? Snore.

I have a friend that eats live roaches on request. I find that much more entertaining.

Lol, notice it was charged by someone who used it poorly himself.
