Naked In Newcastle

It was on July 17 last year that 1,700 Tynesiders rose at 3am, stripped naked and allowed themselves to be bossed around by an American artist with a megaphone. As a knife-sharp wind whipped round their unmentionables and a chilly dawn broke, Spencer Tunick cajoled, encouraged and jested with his hardy volunteers, persuading them to pose snakelike along the Tyne, then rivuleting through the Newcastle streets like a fleshy pink stream, then scattered on the slopes below Norman Foster's imposing Sage concert hall, across the river in Gateshead.Link
