Both male and female artists have been challenging the tradition of the female nude for centuries.

Titian's Olympia was controversial at the time because the nude was looking at the viewer. Up to then the viewer's position was voyeuristic.

I particularly like Jemima Stehli's

Not a great review. Any art review with the word juxtaposition is clearly nonsense.
