Nudes in Art Galleries This Week

[karaban]

Something called 'KitcXhener' in Ontario had a nude viewing of art works this week. Some pictures are below, but there may well be others (some photography seems to have been allowed). Tomorrow and the day after there will be nude tours of the AustrXalian NatXional GallXery of Art by a guy called SXtuart RingXholt. He did some other nude tours of art galleries a few years ago which have also ended up online, so hopefully there might be some pics of that as well. So, this thread is for these events - please feel free to add any pics as you find them!

Thanks, but FYI Kitchener is actually a small city in Ontario, the name of the event was called "Naked in the Gallery"

Too bad this wasn't publicized much (at least to my knowledge) in advance, I bet we'd see a lot more photos (and better quality ones) if it was...

Okay, I know some of these pictures have been posted in the naked in the news thread, but since some people may not have seen them there, and this thread was created specifically for them, I've gathered the photos I've found so far from the Australian event here. Hopefully there will be more to add, although who knows.

I strongly recommend the Guardian article linked there as well (hXXp://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2015/apr/02/skinny-dipping-in-the-void-the-day-i-toured-james-turrells-art-show-naked).

There's also a Daily Mail article (hXXp://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3022498/Everyone-s-not-weird-Naked-art-BUFFS-tour-National-Gallery-Australia-display.html) which contains a front-on-but-censored picture which can't be posted here as it's watermarked, but which I would love to find an uncensored copy of.

Barring any major surprises, this will be the final update on this post. Thanks go to tdi16v in the 'nudity in the theatre and art' thread for finding further pictures from the Canadian event, which are included below. There's also a couple of pictures from the Australian event, including a larger version of a picture previously posted. It doesn't seem like there's likely to be many/any further images from these events. One final tip: if you search for MichXael WilXlems, you can find more pictures of the Canadian event which can't be posted here because of watermarks.

I searched, but didn't find anything. I'm not so good at guessing games. Any help? You can post the link.

edit: Never mind, they're on Tumblr:

In fact, there are massive-size pictures from the Australian event at the following link:

They'll only be there for a limited time, so get them quickly! Very very high-definition. Click the button that says 'Print'.
