TUNICK IN MEXICO


One of the most beautiful photographs of all times was taken today when American photographer Spencer Tunick pressed the shutter button of his camera for the first of various photo shoots before a multitude of 20,000 naked human bodies flocked to Mexico City´s Zocalo square, in the early hours of this morning.

According to one of the participant´s testimony, a very lively one read here, this event literally constituted a joyful liberation exercise which made them all experience a precious but not very frequent sensation nowadays, a very fundamental one: the sensation of simply being… human.

As far as the city is concerned, this event represents another step forward towards its own liberation: after the same-sex marriage and abortion legislations recently passed, this episode has given Mexico City´s inhabitants not just a great moment of creative and artistic expression but mainly another civic liberty momentum.

Yo quería ir!!!, y si, fue un gran paso para toda la gente mocha que vive en este país, mira que yo conozco a varios asustados que aún ven la desnudes como pornografía. Soy una de las contentísimas por estas fotos, y todo lo que significan.
Me encanta que hayas tocado este tema.

Saludos!!

Gracias amiga!! Estoy totalmente de acuerdo con lo que dices. De hecho te confieso que me gustaría poder decir las cosas de la manera en que tu lo haces: gran capacidad de síntesis, super!

Hey my friend! After having read your comment I realized I still need to improve the way I say things: you said it all, clearer and better: so cool!

Cheers!

Jeje, en mi casa le dicen falta de tacto para decir las cosas, pero la gente se acostumbre a mis maneras poco sofisticadas de decir lo que pienso, dice mi padre que soy como un taladro.

mas saludos!!

Neres: De veras creo que esa es la forma correcta de decir las cosas. Tal vez a mucha gente no le guste pero siempre agradecerán que seas sincera. Gracias por el comentario.

My friend, I do think that is the way things should be said. In the long run everybody always appreciates honesty! Cool beans!

A Silvia: Sobre todo en la Ciudad de México en donde se cree que se encuentra uno de los principales bastiones de la Iglesia Católica. Por eso creo que fue muy importante este evento. Besos.

My friend, Mexico City is believed to be one of the most important Roman Catholic Cities: that is why I see this event as a great success. Cheers!

Teorias Bro: Hehehehe! I wish I had known this event was gonna be held in time... Hahahaha! Seriuosly, take for granted I would have been one of those disrobed bodies.. Would ya?
Cheers man!

Bro: Hahahaha! Well that would´ve been pretty much the point in doing it: to liberate yourself from your own "demons" (that is to say your inhibitions hehehe..).

I am telling you man: it would have been a hell of a day!!

Cheers Yo!

Oh God what an act of immorality, God should punish all that people!!!!!!!!!!

Kidding man!...cool that that happens and that we all reach places beyond morality. There was a cycling naked event here in London but to be honest I did not join it. I am too timid and I do not like cycling naked..

As for the shyness and stuff, say is not what tequila and all is for? Hehhehe.. you know, the Neocortex and mammalian brain alcohol side effects... hehe.. we both have been there, haven´t we?.. :)

Cheers man!

SO is same sex marriage legal in Mexico?

 
At 1:34 PM, Anonymous Anonymous said...

Hey my friend: Strictly speaking the law recently passed in Mexico City (Nov 7th, 2006) did not approve same-sex marriages, per se, but it grants same-sex couples a civil union status and therefore civil rights: property, pensions, inheritance, health and so on...

Mexico City has its own legislature and this law only applies to this city´s inhabitants. Anyway, given the current conditions here, I consider this to be a great step, don´t you?

Thanks for dropping by...
