LAS VEGAS -- You can see lots of bodies in Sin City, but they're usually alive.
An exhibition that opens in Las Vegas later this month will feature 22 corpses. The bodies are preserved with liquid plastic in a variety of life-like poses.
Promoters are calling "BODIES, The Exhibition" anatomy as art. But critics have said that the exhibition is unethical and gross.
Visitors will get to touch some human organs, such as a brain, liver and heart. The display opens June 23 at the Tropicana hotel-casino on the Las Vegas Strip.
