Peace, Love and Nude Art at Nude Nite Art Event
Exposing Art and Artists for 14 years
TAMPA, FL — Nude Nite, the largest nude art show in the U.S., opens its doors March 7th for its annual 3-evening exhibition of art and entertainment. Nude Nite exhibits over 200 original works in a 25,000 SF pop-up gallery setting allowing thousands of art enthusiasts to view and purchase artist’s works. The juried show has gained a national reputation for giving the nude a confident standing in the art world.
The 2013 show transforms an industrial warehouse into its signature gallery taking inspiration from Mother Earth herself. “The body is universal, regardless of its shape, size or color,” director Kelly Stevens says. “We are too judgmental of our bodies. It feels good to compliment and appreciate ourselves just as we were created to be.” Guests will experience a rainbow of colors cast upon a canopy of white transparent umbrellas giving a rain forest-like effect. Projection artists will create a 20 foot high 3D light mapping sculpture inspired by global views of the figure.
Guests can expect a diverse group of installation artists which include Japanese artist Miyuki, making edible sexy candy figures in the Ame Zaiku style, and Chef Tiberio Simone of La Figa: Visions of Food and Form (www.LaFigaProject.com), a coffee table book that features a spectacular collection of sensual photography –models wearing nothing but Simone’s edible creations. “La Figa examines the relationship between food, touch and the ingredients that make life delicious,” said Simone. It’s a unique hybrid of fine art photography and food. In anticipation of its opening, Nude Nite has introduced 8 videos on You Tube and Nude Nite’s Facebook page of individuals, artists and performers who have been touched by the acceptance they feel by attending the show.
Nude Nite will host its first male “boylesque” performer from Chicago’s The Stage Door Johnnies. Ray Gunn WILL take it off for the ladies (and gentlement). Guest can expect Nude Nite’s saucy burlesque shows at the “top” of every hour beginning at 9pm, 10pm and 11pm and stage performer, Perego will showcase his mind blowing rock ‘n roll art performance at 8pm. In addition, expect to be entertained by world class body painters, aerialists, fitness pole dancers and the unusual cast of strolling characters around every corner.
The upcoming 2013 shows are held in Tampa March 7, 8, and 9 at an industrial warehouse 3606 E. 4th Ave. Tampa, FL 33605 (Outside Ybor) from 6pm – midnight. 21 and over only. Valet and self parking available. ATM on site. A full bar will be available with quality wines. Sunday’s in Ybor will be providing gourmet cheese plates and heavier meal options all for purchase. Tickets are available online through the website or at the door for $20. For more information visit www.nudenite.com. Facebook:
