Mexico may halt Spencer Tunick project

U.S. photographer Spencer Tunick is well-known for taking photos of hundreds of naked bodies in different locations around the world such as Buenos Aires, Dusseldorf, and Caracas. His next project is planned at the pyramids of Teotihuacan located outside of Mexico City, yet Mexican officials may not give him permission to work there:

“’The application has been filed and the National Anthropology and History Institute is evaluating it, but it looks like they won't let him. It's not the last word but they have told me it will be rejected,’ Alejandro Sarabia, who runs the Teotihuacan site, told Reuters on Monday”.

Tunick’s website is still asking for volunteers to serve as nude models for the photos which are scheduled to be taken on May 6^th.

Would you strip down to your “birthday suit” for the sake of art? Perhaps this Not Safe for Work YouTube video of Tunick’s 2002 photo shoot in Santiago, Chile may influence your decision:
