terrorism / deconstruction of the body

Hi
I am doing some research for an essay about the artist' search of the body and I have a whole section on the deconstruction of the body by artist.
I am trying to find as many examples as possible to illustrate this idea and am looking for examples of artists / body artists / performance artists whose work deals with terrorism and the deconstruction of the body.
It would be great if you could help me out.
thanks a million
Julien

Hi julien,
you've probably already got chris burden and vito acconci for older examples…
subRosa's work on gendered bodies and reproductive tech may be useful http://www.cyberfeminism.net
and julia scher's "securityland"
http://adaweb.walkerart.org/project/secure/corridor/sec1.html
the experimental interaction unit
http://www.eiu.org/
that's all i have, hope it helps… good luck.
ryan
