Naked States

'Naked States' is a humorous and provocative examination of one artist's dynamic work and its relevance within the cultural biography of America, documenting one man's journey as he travelled each of the 50 states to ask Americans of all races, shapes and body sizes to take off their clothes and pose in public before his camera, all for the sake of art. Artist Spencer Tunick's subjects are not paid models, but ordinary citizens. The film exposes America's current attitudes towards nudity, sexuality, body image, and all the other baggage that comes up when we take off our clothes.
