Male Nude, Study No 01, 2005 by Edd Pearman

The Redknapp’s have just released issue 13 of their ever popular ‘Icon’ magazine. The issue features a marvelous article commenting on nudes in the art industry and when they are considered to be acceptable.

Amelia Scivier discusses the placement of nude paintings in shop and gallery windows, and whether a female nude is more acceptable than a male’s:

“A couple of years ago a London gallery exhibited one of Pearman’s works of a male nude in their window. After a series of complaints from passers by the gallery decided to replace the male nude with a female nude, and after the swap, no complaints were voiced.”

To read the full article, make sure you pick up a copy of Icon Mag issue 13 out this month.
