It's art but your Boss may be a putz, so NSFW...


The New York photographer Spencer Tunick has recently encouraged up to 800 people to put their birthday suits on in Düsseldorf, Germany. Tunick used a monumental nude sculpture by Arno Breker and the Museum Kunst Palast as settings for his nude installations.
The work was commissioned by the Museum Kunst Palast and will be exhibited their on September 30 this year.

If you go to his website http://www.spencertunick.com/

you can join up to be part of one of his projects...It's something I'd like to do, but I just don't have the guts to...oh well maybe some day.

I wonder how many "accidental" penetrations happened in the top photo???

I love this one....New Mexico 3 2001





and this one...

'Space 3', (Williamsburg)
1999

I saw the movie about this guy, and by the end of it came to the same conclusion the few critics in the film had: that he has no real talent, but has picked a controversial subject matter and goes on and on about "art" in order to make a name for himself.

he has destroyed so many chances for a true artistic picture, and has luckily relied on his subjects when things do go well.

btw, what is "NSWF"?

Not Safe With Food?

ThirdandFinal said:

well he could do more than he does in a photo...but I like his work.

Sweeny79 said:

Oh, I readily admit there are some nice pictures, but I bet if I gave you a camera and two or three hundred naked people you could produce better

I think the woman looking at the camera just a little off center is dead

ThirdandFinal said:

because the man to her left has just finished choking her.

ThirdandFinal said:

I know what you mean the subject is beautiful, it's not the artist that is making it so.

I see it as the gathering of the people in one place like that is the art, Tunick is just recording it...it doesn't matter if he's good or not.

Sweeny79 said:

I take it you saw the movie? that was his chief argument (he didn't actually say he wasn't good though)

ThirdandFinal said:

No I didn't even know there was one

Just seems obvious that's his intent, to me.

I would like to see it now though...

Sweeny79 said:

He would go on about how he was documenting an event, and a few times his own assistants would tell him how if he is going to all this trouble why not take the best photo possible

ThirdandFinal said:

I'll check that out thanks!

Artists are funny sometimes.... I love when they are really wacky like he seems to be.

Sweeny79 said:

I should ad that the film makers saw things in his subjects that I don't think he did, and at times present a very good film about the subjects, and not just about him

ThirdandFinal said:

I was just reading about it on netflix...seems it's follow up on another documentary called Naked States... I added both to my queue.

purplerein said:

Though you can't see me, I was there.
This was the first ( & only) org invasion I ever attended.

ThirdandFinal said:

these do look just like snapshots

that'd be fun to be a part of those shoots. always turn out really cool.

North South West F***

That's what happens when you play with naked bodies

Reminds me of the holocaust...
