Tunick-Greenpeace Installation
Spencer Tunick has joined up with Greenpeace to create one of his recurrent nude folk in the landscape portraits.
The photo shoot by New York artist Spencer Tunick, famous for his pictures of nude gatherings in public settings worldwide, was designed to draw attention to the effects of global warming on Switzerland's shrinking glaciers.
"The melting of the glaciers is an indisputable sign of global climate change," said environmental group Greenpeace, which co-organised the event. It said most Swiss glaciers would disappear by 2080 if global warming continues at its current pace.

The organisers said they wanted to establish a symbolic relationship between the vulnerability of the melting glacier and the human body.
