Aliza Shvarts
It turns out that Aliza Shvarts did hnot in fact do what she said she did.
The idea was that as an art project, she used artificial insemination to make herself pregnant a number of times, and then caused herself to have abortions/miscarriages.
The material from which she then used as an exhibition.
Truns out that this was not quite true: the stoiry that she was doing this, the story itself, was the art project.

Comments
i used to go to elementary and middle school with aliza, and while we weren’t friends, it was a small school and she was in many of my classes. i remember her being eccentric, intelligent (in a very stilted way…nothing genius) but somewhat pompous and arrogant, occasionally bossy, and chubby with long frizzy black hair. she wasn’t unpleasant, persay, but definitely not someone with whom i would hang out in my spare time. she was kind of a loner, and many people did dislike her because she was conceited and condescending.
in retrospect, i suppse that while the abortion art is definitely startling, regardless of who the artist is, its not exactly shocking coming from her. she was always kind of weird.
funny thing is, i dont remember her being particularly into art class. like, when i think of her, i dont think “artiste”.
i found out about this story after reading a blurb, a one-line quote in “Newsweek” yesterday. i recognized aliza’s name and, after googling her, found out about this.
personally, i think her “project” trivializes abortion, and gives pro-lifers even more ammunition with which to attack a woman’s right to choose. it makes a heartbreakingly tough decision for many women into a “performance piece”, subject to ridicule and criticism. i understand the points she is trying to make in her artist’s statement, but the manner in which she actualized these concepts is absolutely repulsive.

marisaerin@hotmail.com, you claim to have gone to middle school and elementary school with Aliza: I doubt it. I am a teacher from the middle school that Aliza attended.
Your comments are so inacurate, that it is obvious you did not know Aliza well, or if at all? She was awarded many well known and coverted prizes for art and science and literature. We used her poetry for school ceremony and to be printed in the graduation brochure.
Aliza was known to be a gifted student , a generous hearted girl with a warm spirit. It is obvious she is making a bold attempt through art to say something meaningful, which unfortunately has been distorted in this media blitz. We are proud and will always be proud she attended our school.
