The shock and provocation of the artist drew a lot of controversy at the time of the exhibition. Lady Gaga would go on to imitate the artwork when she wore her \"meat dress\" for the 2010 MTV awards.\u003cbr\u003e\nFrom: Louisiana Gallery, Copenhagen, Denmark\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 33.5 in x 24 in (85 cm x 62 cm)\u003cbr\u003e\nCondition: small fold bottom right corner, see photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJana Sterbak is a multidisciplinary Canadian artist of Czech origin. Vanitas: Flesh Dress for an Albino Anorectic (1987) is an artwork created by the Canadian artist, first displayed at Montreal's Galerie Rene Blouin. Its most famous showing was at the National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa, where it attracted national controversy. The work was composed of 50 pounds of raw flank steaks sewn together, and hung on a hanger. According to the artist, the work is a contrast between vanity and bodily decomposition. The artwork is in the collections of Walker Art Center in Minneapolis and of Centre Pompidou in Paris.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat is special about exhibition and gallery posters is that they are an affordable way of getting good, unique art on the walls, as although it is not an artists original, neither is it something that has been mass reproduced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of the age of these posters, there are areas of wear and tear, particularly on the edges. I have done my best to take photos where they are torn. The good news is that when framed, the tears press up well against glass, and edges can be hidden by mats. Any wear picked up from years are part of the charm. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese posters are sent as unframed.
