  • Close-up Photos of Spencer Tunick Nude Photo Shoot Leaked Online

    Photos enabling identification of volunteers at Dead Sea shoot appear to be taken by an official project photographer, who denies responsibility for the leak.

    Close-up pictures from a massive nude photo shoot orchestrated by celebrated artist Spencer Tunick have reportedly leaked online in recent days, in what shoot organizers claim was done against their wishes.

    In September, 1,200 male and female volunteers participated in the mass nude photograph at the Dead Sea, including men and women ranging from 20 years old to somewhere in their sixties.

    They set out for the Dead Sea before dawn and modeled in three different arrangements: one in the sea, one on land and one ‘modest’ shot where they were covered in the famous Dead Sea mud.

    However, the Flickr picture-sharing website held a few photographs, which seem to have been taken by photographer Casey Kelbaugh, and which clearly depict volunteers from close up, in a way that would enable their identity to be disclosed.

    In addition, a 6-minute YouTube clip was uploaded, which included close-up shots of participants.

    Volunteers who had discovered the breach were outraged, with one of them, Adi, 30, from Ramat Gan, saying that he “discovered it through the internet and was very surprised.”

    “My expectation was that if anything was leaked if would be the work of peeping toms,” Adi said, expressing dismay that the photos that made it online seemed to be taken by an official photographer participating in the Tunick project.

    Kelbaugh, however, denies the claims he had leaked the photos, saying that he had no idea how the photos made it online, and was working himself to take them off.

  • Spencer Tunick’s Naked States DVD

    I found out about Mr. Tunick’s work from an article in Wired. The photographs are interesting studies in how the human body can be used to create a unique work of art. I found the documentary to be very interesting as I got to see how such work is accomplished and the kind of difficulties that he has experienced in New York City with those who would consider the nude human body to be obscene or something that needs to be covered at all times.

    It was also great to be able to listen to the actual participants of these events and get their reactions to the whole experience and how liberating it was to pose nude for Mr. Tunick. It was especially touching listening to the poor lady who had been physically attacked 6 months prior to the photo shoot and how posing nude for Mr. Tunick was therapeutic to her and helped her to regain a positive self image of herself.

    I also have to give Mr. Tunick a medal for his courage to ask people to pose for him at a biker convention. This part of the film was an excellent documentation as to how people have such pre-conceived notions of the nude human body and the negativety he experienced until he became better known.

    I hope that Mr. Tunick decides to do a photo shoot in my neck of the woods soon as I would love to be able to pose for him. By the way, he has a official website where you can provide your email address and sign up to be informed of upcoming photoshoots and maybe pose as well.

    Definitely I recommend this DVD. I hope the sequel “Naked World” is released in DVD format as well soon. I would love to see the one about the shoot in which there were 7,000 partipants. It must have been an amazing experience to behold.

    This documentary chronical’s Spencer’s “world tour.” It’s very well filmed and edited. As a nudist I was profoundly moved to see thousands and thousands of people bare themselves for his large scale public events. The photoshoots in Montreal and Melbourn are stunning.
