Traveling to any destination is mind pleasing, and not to mention the euphoria it creates when the travel destination involves a beach. South America in and of itself depicts colorful traditional and cultural environment. Cuisines to be savored are plenty that adds a lot to its resume. With everything set in place for a perfect tourism attraction, nude beaches make the inquisitive go mad and perhaps one of the prime attractions in South America.
Female nudity isn't hard to come by in the media, but the bodies we see usually represent a fairly limited scope of sizes and shapes. The Nu Project , a collection of nude photographs shot by Minneapolis photographer Matt Blum, seeks to add some variety to the mix. Blum started The Nu Project in but said it really took off when his wife, Katy Kessler, became the project's editor.
The idea for the march arose after a controversial police operation in late January on the Argentine coast. Three women were sunbathing topless in Necochea when some 20 police approached to tell them to cover their breasts or leave the beach. According to the police, other beachgoers had complained. After the women demanded to know what crime they were committing, police quoted a criminal code, which mandates fines for those who "offend public decency with an act, word, or display. Some six months earlier, a woman had been forcibly removed from a plaza in the province of Buenos Aires because she was breastfeeding her son in public.
