GOING STARKERS, GOING
BONKERS?
A NAKED man man sitting on
top of a taxi points to the female driver, in the middle of a street in Hefei,
Anhui province. The man ran onto a busy street wearing only a pair of shorts,
climbing onto cars and smashing windows with his bare fists. He was taken away
to the hospital by policeman and doctors after smashing nearly 20 vehicles in
half an hour. Police said there was no identification with the man, and he
would go through a psychiatric examination to determine whether he was mentally
ill, local media reported.
NUDE WAGNERIAN ART
Naked volunteers, numbering
around 1700 people, pose for US artist Spencer Tunick in downtown Munich,
Germany. The nude models were painted red and gold in an attempt to recreate
scenes from Richard Wagner’s opera Der Ring des Nibelungen, as commissioned by
the Bavarian State Opera. Tunick is no stranger to nude installations. He did a
controversial shoot of 1,000 naked Israelis on the banks of the Dead Sea and
5,200 people on the steps of Sydney’s Opera House.
GOING NUDE FOR CYCLIST
RIGHTS
Cyclists ride nude through
central Madrid, Spain during the ciclonudista (nude cyclist) protest against
the dangers commuter cyclists face in Madrid, in conjunction with the World
Naked Bike Ride. The protest calls on authorities to provide safer cycling routes
and for drivers to respect cyclists amongst other demands.
GOING GREEN, GOING NUDE
Naked men walk in water
coming out of the Aquiris water treatment plant, during the "Big
Jump" project in northern Brussels. The green project is aimed at
reconciliating people with their rivers in order to encourage support for the
restoration of rivers and wetlands in Europe, according to its organisers.
GOING NUDE TO PROTEST
Firefighters walk naked
inside their fire station before the start of a demonstration against
government cuts in Mieres, near Oviedo, northern Spain. Apparently, the
government's spending cuts have left them with nothing...hence their nudity.
