Nude exhibit goes online

IF YOU were one of the 3,000-plus people who stripped off in the name of art last year for the Spencer Tunick installations at Blarney Castle and Spencer Dock, you might want to check out his online exhibition.

For four months from today, these artworks, featuring blanket-like photographs of nude people, will be available at www.tunickireland.com.

Commissioned by the Cork Midsummer Festival and Dublin Docklands Development Authority, the website features photographs from each city and footage documenting the various installations. Tunick is recognised worldwide for his elaborately posed still and video images of multiple nude figures in public settings.
