Renowned photographer Spencer Tunick has set his sights on bringing his unique style to Euro2008. For those who have thus far avoided Tunick’s work (and frankly if you have you must have been living in a hole for the last few years), this is the guy that gathers lots of people together and take photographs of them. Naked. The people, not him. That would be weird.
To elucidate, Tunick has requested that at least 2008 willing volunteers (see what he’s done there) congregate in the Ernst Happel Stadium on 11th May to form another of his naked canvasses. Unfortunately, this date does not coincide with any of the tournament games (imagine how much attention would be paid to the on field action if there was a section of the crowd made up of 2000 naked people), but will nevertheless form part of the ‘cultural’ aspect of the competition.
With the Austrian National railway offering free travel to the first 2008 men and women to sign up, there really seems no reason not to be a part of it. If you live in Vienna. And like taking your clothes off. And don’t mind being photographed in the buff. We’ll even give you the link to where you can sign up.
For the easily offended, look away now. For those of a more ‘curious’ persuasion, take a look at some examples of Tunick’s work below…
