Greenpeace said it was seeking hundreds of adult volunteers to pose in the nude on a Swiss glacier for publicity photos about global warming that will be shot by the American photographer Spencer Tunick, who is renowned for his photos of crowds of naked people.

--------------------------------------------------

“The melting of the glaciers is an indisputable sign of global climate change,” said the environmental group Greenpeace, which co-organized the event.

Hmmmm - Mr. Tunick has done many many "living sculptures"
I found this one interesting because of the "literal" contrast of elements:
warm bodies, cold ice LOL

Anyway - thanx YAWL for commenting

Jacquii.

ps - MS KIM - I can't seem to see myself anywhere on that piece of ice
But considering how fuckin miserably hot it's been in TN lately - would be interesting if I did

This is interesting, but it doesn't offer much contrast as far as color is concerned.

Yeah - I agree - but I think that may have actually been Tunick's intent
I've seen other works of his and the color contrast is generally non-existent, bleak at best.
I think the main focus of his work is about "making a point" LOL - whatever that may mean.
There's actually a "sculpture" of his --- I think --- In the Lots Of Humor section Look @ The Sheep --- tehehehe

Jacquii.
