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."

Except all the hatred is coming from the Democrats
what a stupid dumb HATEFUL idiot
but if the girls are naked and PRETTY......it could boost Trump’s crowd size by a factor of at least ten
so this looks like a great idea (for Trump’s campaign... and nobody who dislikes the idea can object because Trump’s enemies...and not Trump... brought the naked girls, ha ha!)
wonderful! how do we thank this guy?
Who cares what Spencer Yunick does?
This is cool. 100 women at sunrise. That should get the ball rolling.
Cleveland needs to set up tent city now. Sheriff Joe can explain the logistics.
Ewwww,a bunch of raging nude lefties...I think I’ll pass on that..saggy breasts and all!
What an a$$hole. Trump said something. muzzies rape, burn and murder but that’s not called hate.
The Dems are losing it. Queen Hillary is going down and they know it.
Liawatha is suddenly very quiet and Slow Joe hasn’t talked about Indians in a 7-11 for over a year.
Does he think that he’ll turn away Christians from Trump rallies by tempting them into adultery? What a desperate loser!
What an infantile load of bull excrement.
Suuuuure - that’s going to make him a lot of friends. And hand more ammo to Trump.
Laz would hit all of them.
Why is it, no matter what the cause, it always come down to this with them?
I would advise Laz not to. No telling how many nasty diseases there may be among them. Not to mention the smell.
He should travel to Syria and shoot his “Nude Women of ISIS Against Trump” poster.

Love to see this guy pull something similar in Fallujah.
Good way to protest all the collateral damage going on over there.
Tunick should squat in front of a mirror and watch the hate excrete from his mouth.
I think he has a condom made of treated pine.
