Tunick in Munich

I see Spencer Tunick has been at it again. Here's his latest nude-installation thingy, The Ring, in Max Joseph Square in Munich. Yesterday he persuaded approximately 1,700 people to strip to the buff and have their bodies painted either gold or red and then form a circle round the Max Joseph monument in the centre of the square. Liberating for the nudes I'm sure, if a bit nippy, and fun for Tunick playing movie director and bossing all those nudes around, but boring and uninspiring from the artistic or photographic point of view. What a pathetic way to make a living.

No art at all. Better to photograph the monument and put the picture in a frame. It has nothing to do with the history of the place.

The nudity reminds me of Jews being sent into the gas chambers. That's the only historical connection I can think of.
