James Ostrer has been known to dress himself in the flayed flesh of pigs and take self-portraits as a commentary on, what? How we\'re all encased in the suffering of other animals? How humans are both sacred and just meat? How "art" is both absurd and utterly serious? I don\'t know, but James\'s work is never boring or pretentious, always provocative and thoughtful.
