Nude performers at New York's Museum of Modern Art have been feeling
the pinch, with some visitors doing more than just looking at the
latest display.
Without going into detail, MoMA said it experienced some problem with visitors getting too close to the live art.
'We are well aware of the challenges posed by having nude performers in the galleries for this exhibition,' the museum said.
'Any visitor who improperly touches or disturbs any of the performers is escorted from the museum by MoMA security.'
Despite the incidents, the performers say they are enjoying taking part.

Turkey gets first nudist hotel
http://bigpondnews.com/articles/OddSpot/2010/04/25/Turkey_gets_first_nudist_hotel_455005.html
Nudist tourists will be able to work on their full-body tan on the
sun-kissed Turkish coast from next week, when the mainly Muslim country
opens its first naturist hotel, a report said on Sunday.
Open exclusively to foreigners, the beachfront nudist-only hotel opens
on May 1 near the major southwestern resort of Marmaris, a small
revolution in Turkey's conservative society, Milliyet newspaper
reported.
'Nudism is allowed inside the hotel premises, but not on the nearby
public beaches,' Ahmet Cosar, bookings manager at the Adaburnu-Golmar
hotel, told the newspaper.
For guests who are determined to shun bathing suits, the hotel will provide a shuttle bus to and from a private naturist beach.
