Nudes Ascending a Staircase


Adult viewers of James Turrell's art in Australia are required to shed their clothes for an after-hours naked tour of his works at the National Gallery in Canberra, Australia ... see: UK Telegraph Story. Does this not smack of grandstanding gimmickry in order for this artist to get noticed? Which he apparently has succeeded in doing.

For this occasion, Marcel Duchamp's famous painting, on loan from the Philadelphia Museum of Art, has been hung upside down.
