Seduce Me – Die neue Tiersexserie von Isabella Rossellini

Dass Isabella Rossellini irgendwann mal verrückt geworden sein muss, wissen wir ja schon seit Green Porno, wo sie das Sexualleben von Insekten und anderem Krabbelgetier nachstellte. Meist mit ihr in der Hauptrolle. Aber auch andere Tiere haben abgedrehte Sexualpraktiken, was uns da oben schon die Delfine zeigen. Blowholesex.
Die ganze Serie “Seduce Me” könnt ihr dann zum Beispiel hier sehen. Was aber mindestens genauso witzig, weil ziemlich direkt und fies, ist, ist das Interview, das Eric Spitznagel mit ihr auf vanitifair führte. Mal ein Auszug:

You’ve worked with a lot of animal penises. Which is your favorite?

A favorite? I don’t know what you mean.

Have you ever kept one as a memento?

They are made of paper, so they are hard to keep. We did an exhibit at the Royal Museum in Toronto, which is a museum of natural history. And then they were taken by a new museum called the Lightbox, which is a museum of visual art. It has taken all of our penises, 22 different penises, some of which are six or seven feet tall. They asked us, they wanted it to be kept so we gave it to them. And then, with the new series and some of the other work of my collaborators, which are Andy Byers and Rick Gilbert, we’re preparing an exhibit for the Wolfsonian museum in Miami.

You didn’t keep even one penis for old times’ sake? It’d make a great conversation piece at dinner parties.

[Laughs.] No, no.

Oder hier, auch sehr cool.

I’ve heard that a lot of turkeys have virgin births.

Really? No, that cannot be right.

I swear that’s what I read. It’s called parthenogenesis, and the percentage of virgin turkey births is something like 40 percent.

I don’t think so, I don’t think so. Birds are not like aphids, where an animal can reproduce by cloning itself. You can segment the worm and the worm can become two worms. Or you can segment a starfish. But I’ve never heard of that happening in a higher animal such as birds.

If it’s true…

No, no, I don’t think it is.

But let’s assume for a moment that it is. If we eat turkey for Thanksgiving, is it possible that we could be eating the Son of God?

[Laughs. Long pause.] I don’t really want to go there, I’m sorry.
