Spanish museum opens its doors to nude visitors

The Archaeological Museum of Catalonia, Barcelona, ​​is offering a 90-minute tour in late October in which visitors to the exhibition are allowed to take off their clothes.

The exhibition, Bronzes of Riace, features Italian photographer Luigi Spina's photographs of two nude Greek bronze statues. The bronzes, dating back to the 5th century and discovered in 1972, are known as the Riace Warriors. The event is supported by the Catalan Nudist Club.

Edgard Mestre, the exhibition's tour guide, also goes naked. He wants to make the tour more colorful and immersive than the usual guided tours. "We want people to feel exactly like the work they're seeing," Mestre says.

Marta, a 59-year-old visitor, said there was no difference between wearing and not wearing clothes when viewing the exhibition. But through this exhibition, Marta understood more clearly that no one needs to be ashamed of their own body and that nudity is an inevitable and always existing thing.
