Spencer Tunick in Ireland

[Pedro the Fisherman]

This 'event', the usual mass nude photo shoots that Mr. Tunick is now famous for took place two weeks ago. One shoot (2500 nudes) on a freezing morning on the sands at Dublin Bay and another (1100 nudes) at Blarney Castle. The Irish were once known as very catholic and reserved...times change!

Finding any shots has been difficult, to say the least! Here are a collection of scanned newspaper photos and some publicity based stuff.

Although this a photo site, here is a link to a streaming video of the Dublin shoot with some nudes evident in the background of the shots.

None of these shots are great quality, however some broke new ground by the fact that a few UK and Irish papers printed the shots with the participants full frontal nude! The one paper that censored the pics was (would you believe it!) The Sun, the paper famous for having topless women on page 3 since 1970!!!!

If anyone knows of any better shots, please post them here!

A few more, starting with a full scan of the newspaper photo (at apparently full size), a couple more from the same source as the Ireland one I posted in the "Mexico" thread, and finally one from the bus ride; it must have been after rather than before, since the latter was in the dark of morning. Some people apparently couldn't get over the thrill from earlier...

These now up, as below. The first just a longer shot of the balcony picture, the second bums to the quay, the third from a part of the shoot I hadn't heard of, the fourth apparently the shot that the Dublin participants were promised to receive (sent to them just in the past few weeks!), and the last the most interesting of the video teasers: who wouldn't volunteer for THAT guy's job? http://www.tunickireland.com/video.html to click the 3 boxes!
