When does the artist study shift to become art. Were these nineteenth-century black and whites just made as eye candy or were they a new way to show the beauty of the human body.

censored and out of England and America. Yet in places like Paris and Berlin this new art of photography was allowed to go naked. This exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum shows the beginning of this movement and the way it progressed through the twentieth-century. This is your chance to get an eye full and it will make you wonder where art will go next.
