The art of nakedness
Friday, June 13, 2008
In most countries in the world outside of Europe, nudity is not just frowned upon but it can even be dangerous. In fact, almost anywhere, nakedness in a public place outside of a designated beach is illegal and it is likely to stay that way.
The human body seems to have become an embarrassment in all its forms.
...Triangle [the statue pictured] was placed on a roundabout in the town of Loveland in Colorado, a place well known for its sculpture. But it was not appreciated. The naked form was too naked and was described as being in bad taste by some residents, who said that there was nowhere in the US Bill of Rights that allows for public nudity.
Wow. That sounds like a rather sweeping condemnation.
