Brooke Shields Nude Portrait Removed From London Exhibition

October 1st, 2009 // Leave a Comment

Artist Richard Prince has withdrawn a nude portrait of a ten-year-old Brooke Shields from a London exhibition. Children’s rights advocates were up in arms when they learned the photo might be part of the London art show, Pop Life: Art in a Material World. They argue that the image could act as a “magnet for pedophiles.”

A spokesman for Scotland confirmed that the Obscene Publications Unit visited the exhibit and said, “The officers have specialist experience in this field and are keen to work with gallery management to ensure that they do not inadvertently break the law or cause any offence to their visitors.” Since then, the room housing the photo has been closed.

In the infamous photo, taken by photographer Garry Gross, Shields is featured naked except for heavy makeup and was taken with the permission with the model/actress’ mother, Teri Shields.

And here are some photos of a fully-clothed Brooke looking gorgeous and age-appropriate.
