Spencer Tunick, a world famous american photographer has made his Moscow shooting for the MOSCOW INDIVIDUALS project last weekend. It Is not the first time Tunick has done portraits; at the beginning of his art career, in the 1990’s in New York he worked on them. He has said, if he had not worked on the massive installations, he still would be doing portraits.

The series that Spencer Tunick has created in Moscow was not his well known group installations but his lesser known and more intimate individual portrait series, where he works one to one with a volunteer.

For is Moscow shooting Tunick has chosen 17 non-professional models, both women and men. The artist and the models were traveling around the city and Tunick has portrayed them in several locations. But only 10 of these works will be exhibited in September within the main project of the Third Moscow Biennale of contemporary art.

Tunick hasn’t revealed the principle of the selection. The models were all under 30ty, non-professional models. Natural beauty of common people is the main message of Tunick’s INDIVIDUALS.

Moscow is a perfect location for the creation of Tunick’s images. In them you will see the interaction of his models and the inhabitants of the city in what the artist called an urban adventure. As usual in his work, the ten Moscow portraits won’t emphasize sexuality; instead they will focus on the nudity of the human body, with the nude shape incongruously existing within public space and, at the same time, being a comprehensive part of such space.
