Color photographs echo the gaudy surface of the Strip, but these people-including waitresses, teachers, sex workers, businessmen, transsexuals, taxi drivers, mothers, and homeless men-dare to step outside their protective everyday facades.Unlike traditional nude photography, these portraits are devoid of erotic or sexual overtones. Friedler's work is a kind of anthropological survey. If clothing is a voluntary choice, unclothed we see people in an involuntary state-we see their bodies as we see their faces, unmasked. These images are at once deeply intimate and refreshingly matter-of-fact. 150 color photographs\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67757414613280,"sku":"USED0393332489","price":38.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/41d9S_AB19L.jpg?v=1791947252","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/naked-las-vegas-0393332489-used","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
