Beast of Burden

Chris Burden combines two things that I conceptually hate: California and performance art. He was shot in the arm for his piece Shoot. He electrocuted himself for Doorway to Heaven. Through the Night Softly featured Burden in his underwear, hands behind his back, wriggling snake-like on a floor covered in broken glass. He was semi-crucified on a Volkswagen for Trans-fixed.

No comment. I just felt like sharing.
