Ron Athey - An American artist associated with body art and with extreme performance art.
In his performances he uses his body to explore controversial subject matters such as the relationship between desire, sexuality, and self-mutilation. Much of his work uses the dynamics of S&M in order to confront pre-conceived ideas about masculinity and the body.
Athey's work is informed by his Pentecostal background and frequently explores religious subjects - basing a lot of his work through the influence of St Sebastian.
I am sorry, I just don't call that art.
