Mummified remains, taxidermied animals, jarred body parts -- these are the images that greet you when you visit the Kickstarter page for Morbid Anatomy.
The curiously named organization, housed in the Proteus Gowanus Gallery space in Brooklyn, is an arts-meets-science, subcultural playhouse that hosts lectures, performances and art exhibits all in the name of, well, oddities. Officially described as a survey of "the interstices of art and medicine, death and culture," Morbid Anatomy is really just a creative laboratory where curious scientists, artists, writers and weirdos get together to explore the underworld of scholarship that no one else gives a second glance. From anthropodermic bibliopegy (books bound in human skin) to extreme taxidermy to death-themed cabaret in 19th century Paris, the group covers just about any macabre topic you could imagine.
Morbid Anatomy showcases its esoteric findings in two ways -- a library/pocket museum that showcases the books, photographs and ephemera of its obscure researchers and a presentation and lecture series titled "Morbid Anatomy Presents." But now the "rogue morticians" are seeking to add a third platform, announcing on their Kickstarter plans for a "Morbid Anatomy Anthology." The illustrated book will feature the best of the Morbid Anatomy Presents series, like the work of Anthropomorphic Mouse Taxidermy Class teacher Sue Jeiven or "Stuffed Animals and Pickled Heads" author Stephen Asma.
The Kickstarter recently launched and already exceeded its goal. Check out the video above to learn more about the project of Joanna Ebenstein and Colin Dickey. What do you think, readers? Does Morbid Anatomy lean in the direction of beauty or horror?
For more taxidermic wonder, check out the work of UK-based artist Tessa Farmer in the slideshow below.

'Morbid Anatomy Anthology': Brooklyn Art Group Seeks Funding For Curious New Book (VIDEO)
BOULDER It was a football recruiting class in which you should look back and see the foundation for a dynasty, of bowl rings and network TV appearances. The bricks included the best running back in the country, three of the top-12 linebackers and the No. 4 defensive end.
Rivals.com ranked it 15th nationally in 2008. The class had all the markings of a future title contender at most and a consistent bowl team in the least. Which 2012 power is it?
Colorado.
Yes, Colorado's recruiting class of 2008 was going to lift the Buffaloes back to national prominence and coach Dan Hawkins to the kind of status he enjoyed at Boise State.
Instead, Colorado went downhill for three more years and Hawkins got fired. Now, when most of those players would be fifth-year seniors, the Buffaloes stand 1-10 and are a loss to Utah on Friday from their worst record since their inaugural 0-4 season in 1890 and first winless home record in 92 years.
But back in 2008, when the Buffs were merely bad and not embarrassing, what were the expectations?
"Through the roof," said senior Jon Major, PrepStar's No. 3-ranked linebacker from Ponderosa High School. "We wanted to start a dynasty. We had all these great things. But if you also look down the line, you see what happens."
Yes, what did happen?
Defections, washouts and busts from that class have left Colorado with only eight seniors, second-fewest in the country. The dearth of upperclassmen has forced second-year coach Jon Embree to play 13 true freshmen, seventh-most in the country.
Neither of those is a death sentence. Colorado has one less senior than Alabama. Schools that have played more true freshmen include Ohio State and Louisiana State.

Anatomy of CU Buffs' plunge starts with recruiting gone bad
They bonded over a long run along the Potomac River: the general and his curvaceous biographer, conducting a Q&A while keeping a six-minute-mile pace.
For West Point graduate Paula Broadwell, the 2008 workout was her entree into the world of four-star Gen. David Petraeus patriot, potential presidential candidate, married father of two.
Four years later, Petraeus stellar 37-year career is in tatters and Broadwell has mostly been missing in action after their adulterous May-December affair exploded in a blitzkrieg of headlines.
The news broke just after Election Day and on a night when Broadwell and her hubby were sharing a romantic dinner to celebrate her 40th birthday.
The disgraced Petraeus, 60, quickly resigned from his job as CIA director, while Broadwell bolted from the North Carolina home where she and spouse Scott were raising two sons. Broadwell has been staying out of sight, though she was glimpsed last week through a window in her brothers Washington home, and she and her husband were spotted walking Saturday on a street in the nations capital.
As the sex scandal mushroomed, its epicenter emerged far from the battlefields of Afghanistan, the halls of power in Washington, or even the suburban Virginia offices of the CIA.
It was through Southern beauty Jill Kelley that the world learned about Petraeus romance and that he wasnt the only officer who isnt a gentleman.
The vivacious Kelley, 37, was a fixture at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, where she served as a volunteer social director of sorts. She hosted a party for Petraeus and his wife at her six-bedroom, 41/2-bath spread in a ritzy Tampa neighborhood, sharing a kiss with the general after presenting him with a civic award.
Their friendship apparently irked a jealous Broadwell, who targeted Kelley with several toxic emails. The nasty notes were cat-fight stuff, a source told Daily Beast columnist Michael Daly.

Some of you might recall my recent desperate search for hi-resolution images of “Diableries” (or “Devilment”) 19th century 3D stereo views. Morbid Anatomy reader Corey Schjoth kindly obliged, sending me the photographs you see above, demonstrating both front- and back-lit views of a particularly wonderful card.
Corey is also a photographer of haunted places; you can find out more about he and his work by clicking here, and check out his Etsy shop by clicking here.
I highly recommend clicking on the image to see larger, finer versions. And if you want to know more about these enigmatic and fantastic Diableries, you could do worse than to watch the Midnight Archive featurette on the topic by clicking here. Also, stay tuned for a heavily-illustrated article about "Diableries” in the upcoming Morbid Anatomy Anthology! More on that here.

In some way death in our culture happens offstage in private, but this show looks at the ways in which people have explored death much more face on. --Kate Forde, Curator of "Death: A Self Portrait," The Wellcome Collection, BBC Magazine
Beautifully and thought-provokingly curated by Kate Forde (who also curated the Wellcome's 2009 Exquisite Bodies), the exhibition uses as its base and its muse the extensive, broad, and rather profound death-themed collection of Chicago-based Richard Harris. Harris' collection is comprised of all things death, ranging from valuable artistic masterworks to the lowest-brow of popular culture, bringing to mind the collection of none other than Henry Wellcome, the man behind the Wellcome Collection. To its merit, "Death: A Self Portrait" draws deftly from both extremes as well as all that is located in between; the result is an exhibition that is at a lovely, provocative, fascinating, witty, and thoughtful investigation into the human obsession with imagining and coming to terms with that greatest and most unknown of absolutes: DEATH.
"Death: A Self Portrait" is divided up into five sections: The first, "Contemplating Death," is a collection of memento mori themed work; The second, "The Dance of Death," gathers works responding to notions of the danse macabre or death as the great equalizer; "Violent Death" features a variety of artistic responses to war, including Goya's Disasters of War series; "Commemoration" concerns itself with burial, morning, and our responses the particular dead; My personal favorite, "Eros and Thanatos," is an unusual addition to a public discussion of death, and showcases "works expressing our strange fascination with 'things at the outer limits of life and death, sexuality and pain."
Also, for the interested among you: both collector-of-death Richard Harris and curator Kate Forde will be contributors to the Morbid Anatomy Anthology, a new lavish book immortalizing in words and images the best of Morbid Anatomy Presents; you can secure your own copy--and find out more--by clicking here.

“I was fascinated by the seemingly comforting strong dresses, and related this form of protective care to my own experiences in hospital and encounters with modern day psychiatric care. My aim was to create a representation of the pieces which lay somewhere between documentary and poetry, incorporating my love of abstraction yet offering a clear portrayal of the pieces for the viewer to interpret themselves." --Jane Fradgley, Held

7th November 2012 – 8th March 2013This new photographic exhibition by artist Jane Fradgley is informed by the collection of strong clothing housed at the Bethlem Royal Hospital Archive & Museum, Beckenham, Kent. The history of this largely unexplored area of mental health care is both powerful and poignant. Through investigation, the artist’s intention is to open new dialogue and debate around protection and restraint in mental health practice. With a background as a fashion designer and a passionate interest in functional and tailored garments, Fradgley was inspired to delve into the archive after seeing Victorian portrait photographs of patients at Bethlem wearing unusual quilted dresses.
“I was fascinated by the seemingly comforting strong dresses, and related this form of protective care to my own experiences in hospital and encounters with modern day psychiatric care. My aim was to create a representation of the pieces which lay somewhere between documentary and poetry, incorporating my love of abstraction yet offering a clear portrayal of the pieces for the viewer to interpret themselves. ?I enjoyed the intimacy when alone with the garments, and felt closer to them by zooming in on details. One by one the pieces were carefully brought to me like offerings for my lens. They appeared reverential and it seemed fitting to respect this when arranging them in a staged setting in the studio. As each session passed I grew very fond of the pieces, perhaps my own projection but I felt as though they had certain characters. I hoped to convey the essence of the people who wore each garment as I felt great energy from the textiles - possibly there were many wearers and many stories never to be told. I had never imagined that these old garments would hold so much emotive substance. For me the purpose of the strong clothing was not to invoke or exacerbate fear or anxiety in the patient, rather the attention to detail in creating such well constructed garments was to bring some dignity, serenity, peace and tranquility ?to the wearer as an antidote to their anguish. Wishing to engage with that sense of calm, I explored soft lighting techniques, however some of the garments responded best in the darkness of the shadows, ?a reminder of the inevitable blackness of mental illness”.
Strong clothing was a rather euphemistic term used to describe certain forms of restraint used in late 19th century asylums. While chains, strait-jackets (known as strait-waistcoats) and similar garments were outlawed during the ‘non-restraint’ movement of the 1840s and ’50s, other methods of ‘mechanical restraint’ were permitted by the Commissioners in Lunacy (the government body who inspected and licensed asylums for much of the 19th century). The intention of strong clothing (including strong dresses and padded gloves) was to protect patients, both preventing self-inflicted injury and the destruction of their clothing.
“Strong dresses,” as described by Bethlem Superintendent George Savage in 1888, were “made of stout linen or woollen material, and lined throughout with flannel. The limbs are all free to move, but the hands are enclosed in the extremities of the dress, which are padded. …There are no strait-waistcoats, handcuffs, or what may be called true instruments of restraint in Bethlem”. Savage claimed that, by avoiding recourse to the use of sedatives or padded cells for violent or destructive patients, many “were thus really granted liberty by means of the slight restraint put upon them”.
The terms, descriptions and types of garment used were fraught with meaning for contemporaries, many of whom saw themselves as enlightened humanitarians. Others, however, did not agree, and the ‘principle of non-restraint’ remained an ongoing matter of debate. By the turn of the 20th century strait-jackets appeared to have returned ?to some institutions. Although the exact dates of the garments seen in these photographs are unknown, given the types of garments reported by the Commissioners in Lunacy as in use at this time, it is likely that they were adopted in the period 1880 –1920.
Through this historical perspective, held reminds us of the difficulty of placing a clear line between care, cure and control in a mental health context. Treatment providers invariably have to make extremely difficult decisions, indicating the importance of opening up debate around physical restraint and chemical intervention in mental health care today.
We are planning a symposium on the subject in 2013, if you would like to be informed about ?or participate in that symposium contact Sarah Chaney at s.chaney@ucl.ac.uk.

Whilst doing research in the wonderful and amazing Wellcome Library in London last week, I came upon a mention of the wonderful and underknown painting shown above, "la leçon d'hygiène" by Belgian decadent artist Félicien Rops. The painting is a rare fine-art depiction of a visit to a 19th century popular anatomical museum. I could find out precious little about it, but Wikimedia claims it is in a private collection and was painted between 1878 and 1881.
If anyone knows anything more about it, please email me at morbidanatomy [at] gmail.com. I also highly recommend that you click on the image to see larger, finer version.
