Photographer snaps 2,000 nude models in Amsterdam
from ABC Online.
Around 2,000 Amsterdam residents posed in the nude for US photographer Spencer Tunick, known for his photos of naked subjects.
Those who participated volunteered for the photo session and met in the middle of the night, ANP agency says.
The photos include women on bicycles or men at a service station, as well as models posing at one of the city's famous bridges in Amsterdam's historic centre.
"With that, he experimented with skin colour," Dream Amsterdam cultural events organiser told ANP.
"In one of the photos, people are lined up from the lightest skin to the darkest skin."
Tunick's photos will be exhibited in Amsterdam's centre, in human size, from June 23 until the end of August.
Tunick has carried out similar photo sessions in Belgium, France, Australia, Britain, Canada and the United States.
In 1994, he was arrested in Manhattan after a nude model posed for him in broad daylight.
