The nude is a classic motif in artistic photography. The desire to present oneself naked is in close symbiosis with the photographer's desirous gaze at his model. An appealing alternation between showing and concealing, between prudery and curiosity. A richly faceted body image has been created over time. With more than 100 pictures we show the bare facts in their poetic, provocative, staged and deformed form from more than 100 years and by more than 30 photographers.
