Nudists welcome at French museum

A museum in the southern French city of Marseille is encouraging visitors to enjoy art au naturel. That is to say, without clothes on. The Museum of European and Mediterranean Civilizations’ latest exhibition is devoted to “living naked” and charts the history of nudism over the last century. The World’s Sarah Birnbaum asks art professionals to make the case for nude museum-going.
