German Artist Wants To Watch You Die

One of the artist’s previous works, “Kind (Sitzend Ohne Kopf)”

Feel like dying? A German avant garde artist wants to tag along while you check out. Gregor Schneider, who you probably don’t know from such exhibits as “Hannelore Reuen” (a sculpture of a dead woman) and “Dead House u r” (a reconstruction of the house he grew up in) is looking for someone who’s terminal and willing to take their last breaths in a gallery. Apparently dude’s had this idea for years, but he’s recently found a doctor and an art collector to play along. Now all he needs is somebody ready to give up the ghost. Anybody with a grandma they can spare oughta give him a shout. Check a sample of Schneider’s slightly more conventional work after the jump.
