Nudity in Art vs Pornography
Art is the process of using one’s skills in
creating and sharing objects, experiences, and conditions which stimulates the
thoughts, emotions, and beliefs of the audience through their senses.
People have been creating works of art since
ancient times as evidenced by the many artifacts uncovered in ruins of ancient
civilizations. The way that they were presented has shown modern man how the
skills of the artists were developed and how art evolved through the years. The
subjects of art can be diverse. They may be of nature, man, geometric patterns,
animals, religion, or man’s day-to-day life. One very controversial subject in
art is nudity.
The human body has been one of the main subjects
for artists. In ancient times, especially in Greek art, the nude male human
body was the most common subject. Today, one of the first subjects that artists
paint is the nude female body.
Nudity has been a favorite subject in paintings,
sculptures, and photography. The practice probably started with the depictions
of gods and goddesses in ancient paintings. Since they were deities, they wore
none or little clothes, and it was but natural to paint them as such.
Today, however, there is a question of when nudity
is considered an art or can be considered as pornography. Pornography is the
depiction of the human body for the purpose of erotic and sexual arousal. It
can be found in the different types of media: magazines, books, photographs,
animation, films, recordings, videos, drawings, sculptures, and paintings. In
fact, ancient nude works of art were considered unfit to be displayed by the
19th century people who have uncovered them.
They were, however, made and seen as works of art
by those who created them. It is only in recent times that the thin line
between nudity in art and pornography has been drawn even closer.
The difference lies in each individual’s perception
and interpretation of the subject. It is important to note that nudity in art
is intended to let people appreciate the beauty of the human body.
Pornography, on the other hand, is intended to
arouse the sexual feelings of individuals and the audience. Models pose in such
a way that their expressions convey sexuality and eroticism.
Summary:
1.Nudity in art has been an accepted
subject since ancient times while pornography is an unacceptable expression
which has been developed in later years.
2.Nudity in art is natural and is meant
to let the audience appreciate the human body while pornography is
intentionally done to arouse sexual feelings in the audience.
3.Models of nude artworks pose
naturally and do not convey any eroticism while pornographic models have
expressions and poses that are erotic and sexually arousing.
4.Nudity in art is accepted in society
while nudity in pornography is seen as inappropriate and is banned in most
societies.
5.In some cases, what one person may view as art
might be viewed as pornography by another depending upon how the presentation
affects the audience.

Art vs.
Pornography: What’s the Difference?
Posted by Theosophical Ruminator

Ravi
Zacharias tells the story of a trial in which a lawyer was defending a
pornographer of the basest sorts. The lawyer asked the plaintiff, “Have
you ever gone into an art gallery?” The plaintiff responded, “Yes.”
The lawyer continued, “Have you paid to go into that art gallery?” Again
the plaintiff responded, “Yes.” “Were there paintings of naked people in
that art gallery?”, the lawyer asked. “Yes,” the plaintiff
responded. “So why do you call that art, but Playboy pornography?”
The plaintiff did not have a response.
Have you ever wondered what the difference is
between a piece of art featuring nude figures, and pornography? Is there
a difference?
In A Pilgrim’s Regress, C.S. Lewis
wrote about a man who ordered milk and eggs from a waiter in a
restaurant. After tasting the milk he commented to the waiter that it was
delicious. The waiter replied, “Milk is only the secretion of a cow, just
like urine and feces.” After eating the eggs he commented on the
tastiness of the eggs. Again the waiter responded that eggs are only a
by-product of a chicken. After thinking about the waiter’s comment for a
moment the man responded, “You lie. You don’t know the difference between
what nature has meant for nourishment, and what it meant for garbage.”
Ravi Zacharias notes that while both art and
pornography utilize nude figures, the purpose/motives for portraying the naked
body are definitively distinct. Pornography utilizes nude figures for the
pure purpose of stimulating the baser instincts of individuals; instincts that
will not be satisfied by that alone. Art, on the other hand, utilizes
nude figures for the purpose of highlighting the beauty of man. While
pornography engenders lust, art engenders admiration for the glory and beauty
of the human body, and thus the glory of its Maker.
