Yes, you read it right. Straight from cnn.com, 1,500 Venezuelans posed naked on a main city street for American photographer Spencer Tunick. Interesting huh? How do you get a huge number of people to shed their clothes and pose naked for your artwork? Aparently he's been arrested in the United States at least a couple times trying to shoot such photography in public here.
So I had to visit Spencer Tunick's website to find out more, and what did I find? The first link on the website is "sign up to participate" where you give your name, email, city, state, sex, age and skin tone. I guess he contacts you when he's in your area...
The human body is a beautiful thing - the curves and shapes of the body. If you dare, check out the pictures on his website. What do you think. They are interesting, and not pornographic. It is interesting how he places people over the landscape so the nude figures blend into the rolling hills of the landscape and overlaps people to create curves.
Let's put it this way. Some human bodies are a work of art. Others are more utilitarian....like a jeep! (I lifted most of that from an episode of 'Seinfeld')
