Crowd waiting to see 100 naked women scuffles with police
Berlin - Organisers of a performance art show featuring 100 naked women had to call in police reinforcements to control a long and impatient queue of people, police said.
Scuffles broke out late Friday as people tried to jump over the barriers to get closer to the women, aged between 18 and 65, wearing see-through stockings and greased with baby oil, who arranged themselves according to the instructions of US artist Vanessa Beecroft.
The show, dubbed VB55, at one of Berlin’s main museums, was the latest in a series by Beecroft, who specialises in works displaying naked or semi-naked women. Her VB45, in Vienna in 2000, featured 45 of them.
A total of 20 police were required to control the Berlin spectators, who had each paid 10 euros (13 dollars) admission. – AFP News
