Nude model arrested in pic shoot at The Met in NYC
NEW YORK — It seems the only nudes allowed at New York City’s Metropolitan Museum of Art are the ones in the collection.
Police say they arrested a 26-year-old woman who was posing naked for a photographer, and in full view of visitors, in the museum’s arms and armor department on Wednesday.
Model Kathleen “K.C.” Neill faces a charge of public lewdness.
Defense attorney Donald Schechter says the museum is full of nude art, and to call what the model and her photographer were doing obscenity “is ridiculous.”
Photographer Zach Hyman directed the shoot. He’s been getting some attention locally for photographing nude models on subways.
Hyman has said he’s inspired by nude paintings at the Met and his photos are not pornographic.
