Internationally acclaimed contemporary artist Spencer Tunick will be offering the public the chance of a lifetime to become part of his first back to back city art project in both Cork and Dublin this June. Multiple groups of nude participants will be photographed outdoors by Tunick as part of his series of installations that have previously taken place in cities around the world including New York, Amsterdam and Mexico City.

He’ll be doing it in Cork on the 17th of June and then Dublin Docklands on the 21st June. Exact locations have still not been announced. From the FAQ:

Truth be told I’m not entirely sold on it yet, but we’ll give it a run and see how it settles in.

There’s a few other awesomely original* changes, but I’ll let you discover them yourself.

*As long as you’ve never seen any of the Gawker media blogs. Although I came up with some of the ideas myself, the wordpress hacker shot back with ’so basically rip off Gawker.’ Damn it. Trying to be original on the interweb is like trying to enjoy life without boobies, satisfying farts and fig rolls.
