I Just Don't Get It

I don't object to the nudity. I object to the absolute stupidity and vacuity of it all:

Almost 1,500 men and women stripped naked in the name of art in the French city of Lyon.

They gathered before dawn to join the latest nude photo shoot by New York artist Spencer Tunick.

Directed by the artist from a crane, they posed with arms and legs in the air between shipping containers in Lyon's port, reports the BBC. . .

Questioned after the shoot, the models said they had signed up "for the experience" or "for art's sake." . . .

Tunick, 38, carried out the world's largest nude photo shoot in Barcelona in June 2003, when 7,000 volunteers stripped for the camera.
