Lindsay Lohan has never been one to shy away from press, no matter how bad or embarrassing it may be. And following right on the heels of her controversial nip-baring photo shoot for New York Magazine, Lindsay's apparently become so fond of showing off her T&A that she's decided to arrange various photo shoots displaying each of her five tattoos. And though the tats' placement aren't, as far as we know, placed in the vicinity of body parts the revealing Marilyn Monroe-inspired shoot didn't dare show, we wouldn't be surprised if a nouveau tat representing some lame Chinese saying for sobriety appeared in the exhibit, premiering this Thursday in New York. Images of LiLo's known tattoos after the jump; it's up to you to figure out how highbrow artists are going to manage to turn the oh-so-original stars and John Lennon lyrics into masterpieces:

Lindsay's first tat was simple enough: a black star on her forearm right when she was entering the Hollywood teen scene:

Then came the inevitable tramp stamp, with a quasi-saving grace meaning behind it, supposedly dedicated to her dead Italian grandfather (but also a hit song on one of her records!):

And following her "asthma attack" on New Year's Eve in 2005, Lindz decided to commemorate the experience by etching "Breathe" into her wrist:

Next in July of 2006, at the height of all those cocaine addiction rumors, Lindsay took a late-night trip with then-beau Harry Morton to get a heart inscribed on a commonly used area of the hand used for sniffing nose candy:

Finally, in May of 2007, Lindz decided to get her lucky number 7 inked on the back of her neck...

...which turned out to be quite the unlucky move, considering she received her very first DUI two months later!

We can't wait to crash this "exhibit" and discover how each of these masterpieces will be turned into epic photographs. Stay tuned.
