BODY ART MUSEUM EXHIBITION






Body Art is an exhibition being held at the American Museum of Natural history. It was raised to display the cultural background behind tattoos. In our society tattoos have been looked down upon. In other cultures, tattoos are a sign on unity, courage and respect. The exhibit displays the techniques used around the world for tattooing. It also displays the history of the use of the body as a canvas throughout the times and in different regions of the world.
