Sruli Recht makes a $470,000 ring out of gold and a 4-inch strip of skin excised from his belly and tanned... with the hair left on.

Art! Via Metafilter.

It's the hair that makes it so... challenging.

Bad art is still art. Most art is bad.

Reminds me of the last line from "Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport" -

So they tanned his hide when he died, Clyde

And that's it hangin' on the shed

What difference, at this point, does it make what I think about it?

I submit if it's bad, it's not art. Some art may be better than others, but all art has some aesthetic value in and of itself.

Overpriced AND disgusting. It's quintessential modern art.

Mohel can get in a lot of trouble that way.

Not the jewelry, just they shouldn't end up with anything that can stream on the side.

Good one Bgates. It took me a second...

I might have a prostate issue.

A stunt. Something you'd expect from an art school undergraduate.
