Human Ash Art?

From the BBC:
"Swedish artist uses 'ashes from Holocaust victims'"

A painting by a Swedish artist which he says was made with ashes from a former Nazi concentration camp has been displayed in a gallery in Sweden. Artist Carl Michael von Hausswolff said that he stole the ashes from the Majdanek camp during a visit in 1989. The camp, now a museum in Poland, has called the alleged theft an "unimaginably barbaric act".  Museum officials have said that the painting may be an artistic provocation but it deserves only condemnation.  An estimated 80,000 people were murdered by the Nazis in Majdanek, three-quarters of them Jews. The Soviet army discovered the camp in Majdanek in Nazi-occupied Poland in July 1944. It was one of several concentration and death camps built to kill Jews from Poland and elsewhere. The museum has said it hopes the authorities will quickly establish whether the remains of the camp's victims had been stolen and desecrated and added it was sure the artist did not obtain them legally.

^ This is beyond disgusting and if true should be placed among the other objects of "art" made from Nazi victims (ie lampshades, butter, etc.) ^
