The Naked Face of Art

Naked bodies are the canvases in new exhibition

An art exhibition featuring pictures painted on naked
bodies instead of canvases has opened in Chile.

The Party of the Body exhibition features thousands of
pictures of painted naked bodies.

Most of the pictures have been blown
up into 10ft high images and some are projected onto giant screens.

The exhibition, entirely by Latin American artists, is being shown
in a circus tent in Santiago, reports Las Ultimas Noticias.
One of the artists, Antonio Becerro, said: "This exhibition shows
bodies that are not defined by meat. Here they portrait metaphoric ideas."
