Spencer Tunick is an artist based
in Brooklyn, New York, who creates temorary site-related installations in
public spaces with large groups of volunteers who are nude. The dynamic tension
between the participants' bodies and the outside world highlights the vulnerability
of human nakedness and the anonymity of public space. Tunick's photographs--which
are simultaneously records of the performances and works of art in their own
right--have been shot at events throughout the U.S. and in European cites
such as Vienna and Basel.
