Unkosher Art

Pig_tattoo_1Look for the artists at a Beijing art farm to get a cease and desist letter after tattooing the Louis Vuitton logo on a pig. The artists in residence tattoo the anesthetized pigs and show the tattoos after the eventual natural deaths of the pigs. According to the artists, the pigs live longer because "their increased value protects them from being killed for food."

On the other hand, they can't be buried in a Jewish cemetery.
