artistic public nudity

[Klondike]

I'd like to start a new topic, and see if some of our newer, hot posters can jump in and contribute pics.

The topic is artistic public nudity. I'll start with a couple of pics and add more later as I'm short on time right now.

I also have quite a few links and may also link to an earlier thread I started once on this topic. But for now, enjoy these. Oh, and Jordan Matter, Urban Nudismo and Allen Tannenbaum have been pretty well covered in other OCC threads...

Oh, that might be me then!:D Your wish is my command, oh great Klondike

I can add some (rare, but not great) shots from the master of public nude art, Mr Spencer Tunick, the first two shots below are from a magazine commision he did last year. Not seen them posted anywhere on the net before.

Secondly, the wonderful 'Bhuto' dancers of Wreck Beach. I am not sure if this event is still happening, but it used to be a free performance, for anyone who was on the beach on a particular Sunday. I have seen pics (stuck on my old HD at present) where the audience are standing just 2 feet from some girls who are raising their legs up in the air, almost shoulder level...talk about getting the best seat in the house!!!!

STOP PRESS
If you like the look of the dancing, they made a film of it in 2006, a trailer (if you can get it to work) is here...

Anybody bought the DVD?

I think I can add on to the arty pics from Wreck Beach. One black and white, and a favorite showing Wreck with a touch of old world class..

crouched like a lizard, ready to strike....

Some may ask if this is a public nudity pic, but I say yes because a truck could come up behind her (and who wouldn't want to...) at any time.

A few more Butoh shots, but alas, not the biggest or the best in my collection......I need an IT guy pretty soon, certainly if I keep posting at the current rate!

more Butah.

I guess by "artistic public nudity" I was refering to something a little different, but what the hey - I just coaxed some pics out I hadn't seen before.

enjoy,

Storefront nude: art or tart?

Snow was falling hard yesterday, but 25-year-old art model Megan Hanford was hardly bundled up. Instead, she spent the afternoon totally naked, standing in the window of a West Village art gallery.

“I’m art,” she said. “This is freedom of speech and freedom of expression.”

Despite the, ahem, revealing presence, to Megan there is nothing erotic or lewd about her naked display in the window.

“I’m not gyrating up there or beckoning to the crowd,” she said yesterday.

Video of the story with a quick shot of her from the shoulders up:

If this were Amsterdam, everyone passing by would be propositioning her...

But in NY, it can only be art. Glad there is no chance for confusion 'cause that could be a tad awkward to be hitting on an art model standing in a window
