nudity in art?

[RickyZ]

If women are a work of art, then I'm a prettier picture when I'm dressed than undressed! Hahahahaha

I would have to see the pictures before I could agree with that. JUST KIDDING! You're beautiful either way!

Well, that just got awkward.

 

[iTOREtheSKY]

I think this thread is scary now. lol

Okay. Quick! Back to talking about nudity in art.

I guess someone is going to have to put the "new" back into "nudity"...

 

[Tintin]

I ain't gonna sing no new ditty about nudity!

OK, but who is "Art" and why is he nude?

Maybe he didn't realize that he would have no clean clothes come laundry day.

Art is Arthur and he looks like a mouse but he's meant to be an aardvark (they beautified him for the children). He has his own books and TV show. But you may be talking about another Art. This one's fully clothed.

Well, I never thought any of my sarcastic comments would get THIS reaction! I think I'm going to get creeped out now.....

i think he was trying to be funny, not creepy. lol. but i can see why everyone freaked out at it
juuuuust a joke guys. swords down. clothes off. LOL. sorry. had to.

so yeah. alive and kicking i guess but in very strange circumstances.... so....maybe the world would be worse if everyone was naked all the time. but if that's the way God originally designed it, then in SOME function it would be efficient and good. in original design it must have been better to be without clothes. or God would have clothed adam from the get go!

but thinking about it now in a fallen world with bacteria flourishing everywhere. i realize that public nudity now would be a nightmare. but. i have to ask. were we that much cleaner before the fall?

 

[RickyZ]

I do apologize, please forgive me I did not intend to creep anyone out. Another ill placed attempt at levity, my bad. I'll try to remember the audience next time.

 

[Tintin]

Nah, you're good. We knew you meant it in jest. You're not the type.

 

[ijustwanttheTruth]

hey IIIIIIIIIIIIIII for one thought it was funny

 

[Tintin]

Me too but some perv would probably have taken it in the wrong direction. Hence my post.

I think "Art" is that guy with no limbs hanging on the wall at the museum...I could be wrong though. I heard it from my buddy "Russel" who is always sitting in a pile of leaves,he talks a lot of nonsense.

Yes we know you did & we were secretly judging you as well for your unrenewed mind,but just didn't go there. (well,I was judging you I know that much) lol

FUNNY to see your posts all over this thread on 'nudity in art.' Can't be bothered to read them all though; from experience I already know what your stance on the subject is. Judging from your remarks on my last avatar you already find the depiction of a shirtless Jesus who invites Thomas to touch his wounds inappropriate.

(big fat wink)

However, this usually is the way this scene depicted in art, take Caravaggio for instance...
