As I mentioned in this entry, I've been watching John Berger's television program, "Ways of Seeing." I've recently finished Episode Two, which focuses on the female nude in the European painting tradition. As Berger observes, "Nakedness reveals itself. Nudity is placed on display. The nude is condemned to never being naked. Nudity is a form of dress."
For your convenience, I've reposted the links for Episode One in addition to the links for Episode Two.
