Artwork in Tate Modern


London is a smorgasbord of art, whether literary or visual.
"Agosta, the Pigeon-chested Man, and Rasha, the Black Dove" (1929) caught my eye in the Tate. It's the only piece that kept haunting me. What do you think?

A creepy piece of art by Christian Schad. Certainly, it makes us question freaks on display. The blurb read "earned their living as side show acts in Berlin funfairs through the display of their bodies. The work is an unsettling portrayal of the body, voyeurism, and social alienation."
