Orlan (Edited)


Orlan is a very interesting artist. I have to say that I love this woman, even when the most of my classmates say she is crazy. The idea of being paid to give a kiss is awesome. She gave us an excellent example of what men think about women. I think this performance change a lot her life. The way she expressed the male chauvinism was so clear and I could understad everything about her thinking.
I did not understad why she got fired after that performance. She is an artist and I think people have to respect her.

However, I disagree about narcissism. I think our body is not an object that a person can change like she did. God made our body to respect it and to do the right things.

The idea about exhibitionism is the most interesting thing that caught my attention, because the word's exhibitionism is not just being naked on the streets. Exhibitionism is to express ideas or feelings, so it is just she did with her performances.

She expresses her ideas so clearly and she makes a great job with her photos and performances that I would love to see her work in an exhibition or even in a musseum. So I have to say that I consider her as an artist. And also, I like the way she looks.

I agree with you because people need to stop with the prejudices that they have with things that they don´t know!
In my opinion she is an excellent artist.

I think she clearly wants to make a statement. I am not sure I agree with everything she does, but i like the idea of challenging the audience and making us think and look at things from different angles.
