Tunick nudes collect their prints in the flesh

THEY bared all for art but were fully clothed yesterday as they collected souvenir copies of the photographs taken by world-renowned American artist Spencer Tunick in Cork last year.

The first of almost 1,100 people who stripped off at Blarney Castle as part of the Cork Midsummer Festival began arriving at the city’s Triskel Arts Centre to collect their 8x10 prints.

“I didn’t recognise you with your clothes on,” quipped one participant to another in the queue.
