Now, if this was happening in say, Europe, or even in say, Brazil, would it even be worthy of a headline?

Good point. They aren't sexually repressed countries, unlike the U.S.

give us a break -and report on something that is art, nude women is so "done" - New York is no longer a leader in art, nothing new or interesting has come out of NY in many many years.

The black dude in the Rolling Stones T-shirt is not impressed.

I'll bet that chick thinks she's an artist.

I think she's probably thinking more about how much she's getting paid (that's Paid, with a P) to pose.

Hey green girl. Captain Kirk called. He'd like a date.

So it is ok to be nude in NYC as long as you dub it art?? However, if any man or woman stripped down to their Birthday suits and ran through NYC they would be arrested for indecent exposure...am I the only one that sees a problem with that? Would it make a difference if that naked runner was throwing paint around and screaming "This is Art!! I am expressing myself!"? I think not, they would probably be arrested still.

She isn't nude...just topless. In NY it is legal to be topless (as in other places), most just don't exercise that right

I'd like to paint her in C men.
