Miru Kim's "NY 1" from the series "The Pig That Therefore I Am"

Days of Swine and Poses: Artist Miru Kim caused a bit of a stir at Chelsea's Doosan Gallery earlier this year when she displayed photographs of herself crawling nude amid a herd of pigs, but that's nothing compared to the attention she's going to get next week when she recreates the work at Art Basel Miami Beach… live. Inspired by French philosophy, the artist says she's ready to jump back in the pen. After all, she's taken the worst the pigs can dish out. "Once, when I was focused on getting into position, one chomped down on my butt, which made me jump and run," she recalls. "It was very strange to have teeth marks and bruises there." Call her Francesca Bacon. [Societe Perrier]
