Now, I thought it was cool* when some 4000-4500 Melbournians got their gear off for artist Spencer Tunick at the 2001 Melbourne Fringe, when Tunick himself was only expecting 800 people to show up.
I thought it was even cooler when 7000 people posed for him in Barcelona's Maria Christina Avenue (which looks beautiful by night, I must say - you should go and see it some time) in 2003.
But way to go Mexico City! An amazing 18,000 people stripped for his latest nude installation/photograph, including one person in a wheelchair. Beautiful.
Thanks to Andy @ Towleroad for the head's up on this one.*As in literally fucking cold - it was freezing, but fuck it was good fun - a memory I'll treasure forever.

There is something just astoundingly beautiful about that shot which includes the person in the wheelchair. Awesome.
Also, I would love if there were shots of the small piles of clothes surrounding the square; neat little clumps of the "discarded" skins we wear every day.
