Painted Nudes

It seems the UK can't get rid of Spencer Tunick. Our yuppies are queuing up to drop their knickers for him. Stung by the criticism that photographing a herd of nudes (What is the collective noun? A skin? A Tunick?) isn't art, Spencer has got his latest crop of nudes to don paint. Body art it ain't, but it is more colourful than the usual blushing pinkos. And, according to the BBC's Anna Holligan, this is Europe's first nude art installation at a festival (the Big Chill Festival). Click the title link to view the BBC video.
