Just as the bitter feud between Kanye West and Taylor Swift was beginning to fade, the rapper and his wife went and fanned the flames - albeit in a very 'artistic' fashion

At a top secret art exhibition in Los Angeles, West unveiled naked replicas of celebrities, including Swift, used in the music video for his controversial track 'Famous'.

The secrecy element appeared to have been lost on wife Kim who - along with supermodel half sister Kendall Jenner - posted videos of the display on Snapchat.

She took pictures of her own replica, sprawled on the bed alongside replicas of West, Taylor Swift, George W Bush, Donald Trump, Anna Wintour, Rihanna, Chris Brown, Ray J, Amber Rose, Caitlyn Jenner and Bill Cosby.

It threatens to kick-start the next chapter in his ongoing conflict with Swift, who was infuriated both at her nude lookalike being used in the video and being referred to as 'that b****' in West's song.

Kanye West held a secret art exhibit on Friday in Los Angeles, which showed off his naked celebrity replicas from his music video for the song 'Famous'

Kim appeared to be enamored with the replica of herself sleeping next to husband Kanye as she snapped pictures of the exhibit while Kendall Jenner posed seductively behind her

Replicas of Kanye (bottom), Taylor Swift (second from left), Chris Brown (third from left), Rihanna (fourth from left), and Donald Trump (fifth from left) were all visible among others

Kim and Kendall took numerous Snapchats to share the private event for their fans who were unable to get in to the exclusive event

Yes Kim Kardashian has gone blonde again. Her hair can only just have recovered from the last time she gave it the bleach treatment but it's a good look for her and summer is a great time to experiment after all.

But debuting her bleached tresses was obviously not enough for Kim to make an impression. She had to go and wear a sheer fishnet body stocking of a dress as well. It's certainly a look.

Fashion Finder is a also a little disturbed by the skin colored bodysuit underneath finding it a little Pedro Almodovar for our liking. We'd have worn a black bodysuit.

...NOW GET ONE LIKE IT FOR LESS

The 'Famous' music video (pictured) stirred up a massive controversy in June after the rapper allegedly didn't get permission to use the likenesses. Most notably was Taylor Swift who was said to be 'mad as hell' that Kanye used her image

The public first learned of the exhibit at the private Blum and Poe art gallery when Kim tweeted she was on her way there.

'Heading to a secret art gallery location to view Kanye's Famous Exhibition!!!!' she tweeted.

Slowly pictures began leaking from the show, which proved the exhibit was a life-sized recreation of the music video, Complex reported.

The 'Famous' music video stirred up a massive controversy in June after the rapper allegedly didn't get permission to use the likenesses.

The artwork Kanye displayed of the naked wax replicas from the music video got him into trouble with the celebrities featured in the bed when he debuted the video.

Most notably was singer Taylor Swift who was allegedly 'mad as hell' at the rapper for using a naked lookalike wax figure of her.

'Taylor is furious after seeing Kanye's video. She feels like she's been assaulted,' a source told HollywoodLife.com when the video was released in June.

'She knew he was unpredictable but didn't think he would go so far. She's strategizing with her team as to what her next move should be.'

The source added: 'She's weighing all her options and will then respond accordingly. Just writing a song dissing him isn't enough payback for something like this.'

Kanye added fuel to the controversy when he tweeted tauntingly: 'Can somebody sue me already #I'll wait.'

The pair have had an on-going spat since the 2009 MTV VMAs, but the feud recently flared up when Kim leaked a video showing Swift approving lyrics she later denied giving the green light to in the song Famous.

Kim posted a video to Snapchat of a recording of the conversation between Swift and Kanye, which proved to the Kardashian sister that Swift had approved the lyric.

Kanye previously curated an art collection for an issue of CR Fashion Book, which features work by artists including Richard Prince, Cecily Brown, Paul McCarthy, and Anish Kapoor

Kanye watched from a video screen as he prepared for a show on his Saint Pablo Tour in Buffalo, New York, before going to Canada

TIMELINE OF THE FEUD BETWEEN KANYE WEST AND TAYLOR SWIFT

2009 - Kanye makes headlines as he interrupts Taylor's VMA acceptance speech to proclaim that Beyonce deserved the award instead

2015 - Duo bury the hatchet and are pictured looking chummy at Grammys

February 2016 - Kanye unveils Famous track including lyrics 'I made that b***h famous,' during preview of his Life of Pablo album in New York

February 2016 - Taylor's reps release statement to say she was never made aware of rapper's lyrics

February 2016 - Taylor makes dig at rapper during Grammys speech saying 'people along the way will try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments'

June 2016 - Kim accuses Taylor of lying about not being told of the lyrics and mentions phone recording of conversation with Kanye. 'She totally knew that that was coming out. She wanted to all of a sudden act like she didn't,' Kim says in an interview with GQ

Kim also reveals Kanye had been sent a letter by Taylor's attorney demanding footage of the phone call be destroyed

June 2016 - Taylor's rep issued a statement in response to Kim's GQ story: 'Taylor does not hold anything against Kim Kardashian as she recognizes the pressure Kim must be under and that she is only repeating what she has been told by Kanye West. However, that does not change the fact that much of what Kim is saying is incorrect. Kanye West and Taylor only spoke once on the phone while she was on vacation with her family in January of 2016 and they have never spoken since. Taylor has never denied that conversation took place. It was on that phone call that Kanye West also asked her to release the song on her Twitter account, which she declined to do. Kanye West never told Taylor he was going to use the term 'that bitch' in referencing her. A song cannot be approved if it was never heard. Kanye West never played the song for Taylor Swift. Taylor heard it for the first time when everyone else did and was humiliated. Kim Kardashian's claim that Taylor and her team were aware of being recorded is not true, and Taylor cannot understand why Kanye West, and now Kim Kardashian, will not just leave her alone.'

July 2016 - Kim shares recording of phone conversation in several clips shared to her Snapchat

July 2016 - Taylor angrily defends herself on social media insisting there's no proof she approved 'that b***h' lyrics

July 2016 - TMZ obtains copy of lawyer's letter to Kanye in which it's stated that under California law, anyone who secretly records a telephone conversation with someone in the state commits a felony criminal offense.

Swift later shot back with her own response:

'Where is the video of Kanye telling me he was going to call me 'that b***h' in his song?

'It doesn't exist because it never happened. You don't get to control someone's emotional response to being called 'that b***h' in front of the entire world.

'Of course I wanted to like the song. I wanted us to have a friendly relationship. He promised to play the song for me, but he never did.

'While I wanted to be supportive of Kanye on the phone call, you cannot 'approve' a song you haven't heard. Being falsely painted as a liar when I was never given the full story or played any part of the song is character assassination.

The feud caused celebrities to pick sides in an all-out Twitter war.

Kendall Jenner pointed out the wax figure replicas to guests at the exclusive show, which included a replica figure of Donald Trump (bottom)

Swift even threatened legal action against Kanye for allegedly illegally recording her, but those in the room at the time claim there was no expectation of privacy.

Tempers have cooled since then, but it's unclear if Kanye is attempting to stoke another feud by bringing out the contentious piece of art again.

Some at the exhibit sent out snapchats saying the replicas of celebrities appeared to be 'breathing'.

This isn't Kanye's first time trying his hand in the art world, according to Complex.

He's previously curated an art collection for an issue of CR Fashion Book, which features work by artists including Richard Prince, Cecily Brown, Paul McCarthy, and Anish Kapoor.

The curation, titled 'Blud Rush', was inspired by 'unconventional beauty'.

However, Kim was in attendance and spent the evening gawking over her own naked figure.

Kim gave those who couldn't attend a glimpse of the show as she snapchatted the event to her fans.

Sister Kendall Jenner also dropped by to show her support.

During the art exhibit, Kim greeted her husband, who communicated from a screen set up so he could watch.

The rapper grinned in delight after getting some TLC from his wife.

Currently on his Saint Pablo Tour, Kanye is scheduled to perform in Buffalo on Saturday before travelling to Toronto.
