Vanessa Beecroft’s performance in Berlin with 100 naked women is her biggest show ever. Certainly, there is plenty about Beecroft’s work that is voyeuristic. The most interesting aspect of the new work is “its almost calculating cruelty: this evening’s public performance lasts for three hours. Apart from the odd stretch and yawn, the women are instructed to remain as still and silent as possible. Towards the end they can lie down. Yesterday, at the preview, attended by dozens of journalists and TV crews, several of the “girls” as Beecroft calls them sat down exhausted. Most looked distinctly bored.”
