Of the 50 actors streaking around the New York Stock Exchange on Monday morning, three were arrested – a naked janitor and stock broker and a topless dog walker. See her and a nude-ish few more here. NSFW.
New York-based artist Zefrey Throwell’s five-minute public-art performance Ocularpation: Wall Street — an “absurd critique” of the lack of transparency on Wall Street — only involved one minute of actual nudity, but it was enough for social networks to ripple giddily with “omg-that’s-so-NYC” joy and for the boys in blue to swiftly cuff the boys and girls in nothing.
Zefrey Throwell has already done this alone in San Francisco, photographer Erica Simone did it in NYC for kicks and before that, Zach Hymen made headlines with his naked-model-in-the-Met run. (Photos: Zefrey Throwell)
It should be who got arrested on Wall Street Yesterday.
i love it. thank you people who did this.
one of the arrested (the woman walking the invisible dog) tells her story http://nudistnaturistamerica.org/blog/blog1.php/2…
at the end of the account, she mentions she doesn't know what laws she broke, or what her legal options are now.
Enjoyed the article and linked to it on my blog. Thanks for sharing!
um. unless the law was changed it is NOT illegal for women to be topless in NYC….
