Plastinarium Album

$850.00

Located in the city of Guben (Germany) the Plastinarium presents the process and results of a controversial embalming process developed by Dr. Gunther von Hagens.
The process involves removing most of the water from a corpse’s dead tissue and replacing it with synthetic polymers that preserve the bodies in perpetuity as medical models and items of curiosity. This is usually done once the subject has had their skin taken away, or their component parts separated.
The Plastinarium photo album allows visitors to walk through the steps of the gruesome, but fascinating process as they tour the actual lab where the preservation is taking place.

At the Plastinarium, visitors can experience anatomy up close while viewing the preparation of the most modern teaching specimens, look over the shoulder of the plastination technicians as they work, and get a whole new perspective on human and animal bodies.
