Abraham, took on the role of human hen and sat on chicken eggs for three weeks. Known as France's most extreme artist entombed himself in an egg- shaped rock at Palais de Tokyo.

He said he hardly slept during the 23 days he was nesting inside a glass vitrine.

H e was successful getting through with nine eggs, maturing into chicks.

This action was frowned upon and condemned by animal groups PETA . They said that "There is nothing to celebrate...Animals have no place in art, 'Cause they will never meet its mother"

What an extreme act by this 44 year old artist.

I think he should not be given the chance to do this. What do you think?
