The art of being naked: Photos of Tampa Nude Nite 2010

Body Art
Tampa Nude Nite 2010 kicked off its three-night show Thursday at the old Tampa Armature Works building in Tampa Heights. A delicious mix of art lovers, voyeurs and curious onlookers enjoyed a night of entertainment including live burlesque, body painting and dozens of  works of art  displayed by nearly 100 artists. The atmosphere in the beautiful red brick “Trolley Barn” was electric. Strolling semi-nude and body-painted models added to a sense of artful exhibitionism. “Live” art — statuesque nudes in picture frames — dots the entire event, which also features sculpture, paintings, photography and great music. The classy but provocative exhibits, which include a poignant gallery of photographs of, and for the benefit of, breast cancer survivors, are on display in the evenings from 6-Midnight through Saturday.  Tickets are available at the door. $20 cash only. 21 and over, ID required. Valet available for $3.
The Heights Warehouse aka The Trolley Barn on the Hillsborough River, 1910 Ola Ave.  Tampa, FL 33602.
