Spencer Tunick heeft weer toegeslagen, deze keer in het (preutse en zeer Katholieke) Portugal.
Eleuterio Pais, the priest in the northern town of Santa Maria da Feira, near Porto, said the idea "had nothing to do with art".
The project is the brainchild of American photographer Spencer Tunick, who shot his models on Saturday as part of his world tour "Nude Adrift", which has led him to photograph groups of unclothed people in cities as far apart as Barcelona, Buenos Aires, Montreal, Sao Paulo, Paris and Vienna. Tunick has been at work on his project since 2001. His record so far is the immortalisation of a group of 7,000 naked people in Barcelona.
"There has to be a limit to everything," said Pais. "Until a few years ago it was a crime to appear naked in public." He also blamed the local authority for helping stage the event. "The town hall should concern itself with more serious things," he said.
