I went to a Gunther von Hagens exhibition in 2015. It was chilling in a beautiful way... My mother dislikes anything death/wound related (couldn't even wear skull t-shirts near her) and I didn't have any friends to come with at the time so I went alone. I remember the silence inside, lights only pointing at the bodies and a peaceful music playing. I looked at every body, in awe of just how complex we are underneath. It's one thing to know and another to see; it was the first time I saw a dead person since I was five in my grandad's funeral. I remember wondering about every person - how they lived, what they felt, how they would have felt, had they seen what their bodies had become. I also thought "I want this done to me after I die - immortalize me so other decades to come can also experience the marvel I felt!". One day, I hope of seeing a live dissection. Our bodies are wonderful - both in life and in death.

The event was extremely well organized and Caitlin took the time to meet her fans, take pictures, and sign books.

Yay for consent! The skull was used for live performances and also featured in the 2009 film-version of Hamlet.

There is a line regarding corpse art without consent. In my opinion, using parts that aren't identifiable is riding that line, while stuff like 15:44 is definitely crossing it. That is exploitation of a dead body, not art. If I were a dead body and my arm or my bones were used in art, I wouldn't particularly care, but if my fresh, clearly identifiable corpse was immortalized in photography without my consent, I would haunt that "artist". GIVE ME MY PRIVACY GODDAMMIT.

From Wikipedia: "These fantasies gradually evolved to incorporate his own near-death experience with the Arab taxi driver, the dead bodies he had seen in Aden, and imagery within a 19th-century oil painting entitled The Raft of the Medusa..."

This video reminded me of something I learned in band. The composer, Percy Grainger, had it put in his will that after he died, he wanted his bones to be made into a wind chime so he could continue to make music, even in his death. There's my little fun death fact. IDK if you knew this or not, Caitlin, but I thought you might enjoy it with all the other deathlings.

Yay! I am Czech and visited the Ossuary. They didn't have any more space to put the dead after a plague outbreak, so this was their way of "upcycling" the remains.

Great topic. My med school had an art program for bio-illustration. The art students would study the cadavers we were dissecting. They also created all the cover art for our class notes and syllabi. I always thought it was a fascinating intersection of art and science.

As an absolutely rabid art devotee, I can't believe I never thought about donating my body to art. I would love to be made into bubbles or mopped onto the floor of an art installation. I always say that more than anything I love art that elicits strong emotions, and man do those two examples fit the bill.

"Ophelia" by Sir John Everett Millais, depicting the drowning death of Ophelia from Hamlet. It has some interesting stories behind it like how the model, Elizabeth Siddal, had to pose in a bathtub of water for hours over several months, kept warm by oil lamps underneath. One time they went out, and she got really sick and the artist faced legal action from her father. #CatEatEyeballs

i love this video so much. I'm in love with baroque and renaissance art and this is definitely something that's seen a lot in these eras. Kinda shows how intimate they were with their own mortality due to the lack of medical and technological advances they had and kinda pushes them to get face to face with death. anyways love your channel! just stumbled across it a few days ago and i'm definitely hooked. thanks for the interesting content and you should definitely do more death in art videos!!

I've always found things like the catacombs and that chandelier beautiful. I see it kind of like organ donation, if you sign off on it before you die then it should be up to the individual how they want their body used after death. Same lines as being donated to science.

I honestly have a guilty pleasure type appreciation for the sculptures and other things made out of Bones of skeletons. It's oddly gorgeous. It feels practical and useful of an otherwise unused thing. It takes parts of people that don't really breakdown in decomposition and so it's pretty cool to find use for them as decoration, furniture or any sort of clever ideas. I like finding a better, healthier, more open connection to death then our current situation in society is, where we are so disconnected, detached and repulsed by something completely natural in life and exists all around us. It's shouldn't be a bad thing to have a healthy connection, expression, perspective on death and how to treat it and it's processes.

I am so glad about mentioning Sedlecká kostnice (it's how we call it in Czech) because it's really magnificent piece of art out of dead. Didn't impress me on my first visit but I was like 6 years old so I was more interested in my french fries with ketchup. But for the second time, of lord. I love it. There is no sign it's conected with death (well, except it's all out of human bones) There are no skeletons in human shape anymore, no grim reapers or skeletons in robes like in other places. Just really impressively arranged bones. Like the bone wall out of femurs. Like all the decoration on the cieling. All the decoration everywhere else. It's really cool (Haha, get it? Cool... There is like over 10 degrees colder than outside) And I am so happy I saw it and felt it in person. It's really unique and powerful piece. And I just don't mind art out of human bones/parts when it's almost no chance they still have some family members alive. Or at least they just don't know the skull on the top of some of the decoration was their family member. It doesn't colide with my morals. The dead ones in this stage (being dead) don't mind but their family members can be hurt by displaying their loved one like this and I respect that. But Sedlecká kostnice was decorated with old human remains which wasn't identificated and no one was even able to identificate them. So... I think my morals are okay with that

Though I understand there's something special about the first artist who used dead bodies and the stories of the survivors of war to recreate kinda realistic depictions of a battlefield, I still think the art of Otto Dix might have a more intense effect on the viewer since he actually was a survivor of WWI. (for those who are interested, type "Otto Dix war depiction" or "Otto Dix der Krieg" into the search engine you prefer). It's not that huge coloured painting which I think is so intense but rather his kinda fast-drawn looking sketches depicting dead or dying soldiers (still) having the horrors of war burned into their eyes and gestures.

Anyway, I had no idea so many masterpieces and lesser knowns were depicted from actual corpses. That gives me a whole new outlook on it, so thank you!

This is my favorite video on the internet. I'm an inspiring studio artist who already explores putting the dead into my work, right now it's dead animals (found wild animals, not killed) and using some of my own facial hair and blood, but I dream of using human bodies in art to impact people educationally and emotionally. I already knew about some of the classic artists in this video from my art history classes, but had no idea about the modern ones. I now have new idols in the art world I can look up too, and I cannot thank you enough for your hard work. Thank you!
