Anatomy lessons have a touch of artistry in a display that returns to Atlanta.

"Bodies: The Exhibition" gives people views of the human anatomy normally reserved for medical professionals. The displays drew 400,000 visitors when the exhibition was in Atlanta two years ago.

The show, which opens Friday at the Premier Exhibition Center at Atlantic Station, details the anatomy of humans in various forms using actual human specimens.

This time around it includes a body in the pose of a basketball player and one as a baseball player, said Premier's Tom Zaller, vice president for exhibitions.

Overall, there are 250 organs and full body specimens in the exhibition, Zaller said.
