I didn't like it at all The story is bad and so much nudity I don't understand how in th...

Not to be rude but you sound as ignorant as some of the people in this story. The human physique is a beautiful thing and something’s only sexual if you look at it in that way. The painter painted her nude because he loved her for everything that she was and he didn’t do it because he wanted to show her off shamelessly.

I'm sorry
I didn't mean to offend anyone I believe every one is free to do whatever they like
But I really really can't see nudity as an art in my culture it's a shame and I don't really like it so I was just saying my point of view
But I really don't like that kind of art

Don't worry aya chan, you’re not the first person to dislike nude art and you certainly won't be the last. Nude artworks have often come under fire throughout history and none so much as female imagery. Even the ancient Greeks who often portrayed males with their genitalia exposed, and even presented proudly, rarely showed women without at least robes and never completely nude. There have been plenty of nude pieces throughout history meant to be erotic, shocking, or downright offensive but that’s ok because they were created in order to provoke that reaction. Nudist works can show the human body as beautiful but they can also be used to stir feelings we may not like or want to think about, but in many cases that is exactly the point. Don’t deny yourself of your opinion because others may not see it as politically correct, it is perfectly alright to feel embarrassed and offended by nudist pieces. If you do encounter a nudist piece (such as in a museum, for a project, or anywhere else) try to focus less on the nudity and more on the other elements that make up the piece and the artist's message. And don't be afraid to express yourself, expressing your feelings is the true meaning of art.

Oh thank you
I really liked your reply
It's something I grew up with and I believe in modesty more than the nuds
But as you said everyone has his own thinking about what right and what's wrong

I know y’all already solve this but I kinda wanna add to this since I found it interesting. nude art is essential to any artist, since knowing and understanding the human body is key for a lot of things. Nude art usually helps people understand that and it helps break the walls on feeling ashamed of showing “our” bodies. Rather than thinking of it as something shameless, look at it more as a study. Just like the paintings and sculptures one sees in museums, they were all studies to see how close they could get to the real thing and basically, kinda, show off the human body. You don’t have to like it of course, like hoe Maddie said, but at the very least don’t denies it as a form of art. Also I think this story did a good job at showing the goods and the bad of this medium, where you can show your love for someone, while some do it for awful things. But at the end, it’s your opinion to not like it so don’t feel like u have to apologize for having it.

You're all poopers ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ

Thank you for your kind words you and all the people that replayed I will try to open my mind to the diffrnet thing in the word

I know this is an old thread but I thought I might give a bit of a artist prospective. Have you ever seen a Greek statue? Most of them are made from marble and the full body carvings are almost always nude, yet people look at them in an artistic and historical light instead of a sexual one. And they should. Those statues are hand carved from a single piece of marble and are hundreds of years old, yet are so detailed that you can see the veins and tendons on their arms and hands. You simply can't look at it without seeing how much time and care went into creating it.

That's what nude art is meant to be. Not sexual, but beautiful in the care and detail given to the subject. But as with all art there are those who appreciate this particular form of art and those who don't. I won't begrudge you your art choices. Honestly, I still can't seem to make myself like Postmodern art no matter how much I try so I can't really throw stones.
