Bodies The Exhibition at South Street Seaport

Via NewYorkology:
"BODIES ... The Exhibition" will open Saturday at the South Street Seaport, filling up the new Exhibition Centre with 22 whole bodies and 260 organs and partial body specimens.

The bodies -- all real -- have been preserved with liquid silicone rubber that is treated and hardened, creating rubberized specimens preserved to the cellular level.
