i mean, i don’t know how it is in other countries, but here we literally study art with nude people in it - Liberty Leading the People is part of the 8th grade national curriculum - and looking this up, i even found a teacher’s blog about class activities they did on it with 3-5th graders. i also recall having studied paintings depicting people having sex in 8th grade latin class
it’s also not uncommon to have statues of naked people in the middle of town centres - and nobody is making a fuss about it “not being art”
it is art, it used to be recognised as art for a long time, but now it seems like more and more people have a double standard, where old art depicting nudity is valid, but modern art depicting nudity isn’t
Nudity can also be art
It is art.
I’m still allowed to be horny for art though right?
i mean, most arts are about evoking feelings, i don’t see how it’d be wrong for art to try to evoke sexual pleasure
