At some point, everyone's been in a bar they thought should be called the backside of the world.
But modern artist Joep van Lieshout has gone one better to create the BarRectum at an exhibition in the Austrian capital Vienna.
The building - based on a huge human anus - is part of a series of shocking sculptures on show by the Dutch oddball.
Others include a tourist kiosk in the shape of a human sperm and a nightclub shaped like a decapitated female torso wearing a bikini.
"I'm not sure I'd be that keen on going up the rectum for a quick drink but it's an interesting idea," said one art lover.

It says a lot about Hitler's artistic talent that he was rejected by the Viennese.

In a way, like watching Timmay trying to spell his way out of a wet fetus bag.

The Museum für Moderne Kunst (MuMoK - Museum of Modern Art) has such external installations on occasion. My favorite was "House Attack".
