Photographer Tunick plans nude demo against Trump's 'hate'

Bogota (AFP) - American photographer Spencer Tunick, famous for his pictures of huge crowds of naked people, is not a fan of Donald Trump.

In fact, when the presumptive Republican presidential nominee travels to Cleveland next month for the party's convention, Tunick plans to greet him with 100 nude women holding up mirrors in a form of art photography-turned-protest.

"There shouldn't be a rhetoric of hate in a presidential election," Tunick, 49, said of the billionaire tycoon's campaign, which has featured virulent diatribes against Mexicans, Arabs and women journalists, among others.

Speaking in Colombia, where he plans to assemble 4,000 naked people Sunday in what he calls a message of "peace and unity," Tunick said he felt a duty as a husband and father of two daughters to speak out against Trump.

"I can't just vote. I have to do something," he told AFP.

"I think every artist in the US should make an artwork before the election and get it out there."

His plan is to line up 100 nude women at sunrise on July 17, the day before the Republican national convention starts, wielding mirrored discs to capture the blinding light of the sun -- and expose what he calls The Donald's misguided policies.

Volunteers can sign up online at spencertunickcleveland.com to pose for the shoot, which the artist says will take place on private property near the arena.

"Republicans, Democrats and all other political parties are welcome to take part," says the website.

"It's an artwork, not so much a protest but an action to heat up the city... (and) show that women have power," Tunick said.

"Women in the city should look themselves in the mirror, and mirrors should shine back at them and they should see the language of hate that is coming from the Republican party."

I hope he goes right ahead - more votes for Trump.

Liberals can’t see acts like this just turn people off.

And they’re doing a bang-up job of it.

Nude women or nude feminists? There’s a HUGE difference.

If any are like a former hefty hag phb-ette that was a huge (literally) eco-wacko, the photos could be sold as a diet aid.

I never saw that person except in baggy ill fitting office clothes and that was enough.

I do hope Tunick is co-ordinating with whoever organizes the anti-Trump riots.

Naked women and a riot - even naked liberal fools - is a really bad mix.

He’s advertising naked women at a Trump rally?

Wonder what would happen if Trump did that?

Let’s hope Trump offers them bikinis.

I encourage him to round up every fat, bearded dyke and freak he can find for his nude protest.

Make sure the entire media sees.

Oh, yes - please protest Trump in this manner. The more the better.

From Wikipedia:

“Spencer Tunick was born in Middletown, Orange County, New York into a Jewish family. “

It is too early to describe an unquestionable pattern, but there is no question a part of the anti-Trump movement appears to be the in part Jewish, “export American industry, largely to China”, business.

America needs to be for America, for a change. Jewish Americans need to be for jobs, right here in America. Jobs.

American jobs.

Bring back American industry, and bring back American jobs.

To America, once again.

yes.
there’s long, long been a joke about some “protesting all the time” mostly quite rich old women (that being in one of America’s most richest communities) who go out and strip naked from time to time....to “protest” such vital Cosmologial conditions as, say, the diet of harbor mice

anyway, they are almost all quite well along in life (olde).... and (the very kindest way of putting this) have lost their charm

so ... some citizens who, frankly, just got sick and tired of all the mostly - inane or incoherent nude “protesting” started going up to the women asking, “hey, Grandma, bring your granddaughter with you next time!”

not kind.
but I agree, the chances of the naked “protesters” at the upcoming Trump rally.... being worth looking at... being even pretty..... are infinitismally small. Like your odds on flying pigs. Indeed, an uncharitable expecation would be for just naked pigs.....period. WHY it is seemingly always this disappointing...??? was a great mystery until we discovered the underlying controlling principle, namely that the “ugly old bags” (sorry!) go out there “protesting” in their parciularly odd way........ because they’re unhappy. They’re unhappy about themselves, alas. They’ve never met Mr. Trump and they’ve never had to eat the food being fed harbor mice (unless you consider McD/s)
They’re just very sadly miserable ... about themselves.

There are some good remedies for this unfortunate condition but....well, its dinner time so I will leave that to other posters
Best,

Who cares what Spencer Yunick does?

The press cares. They're the people who hate Republicans - they'll be out there interviewing him and giving him 'the stage' to trash conservatives.
