“Nudescape #17 (1977) is one of a series. The series consists of seventeen images based on the idea that if the torso is selectively presented, it will transcend the literal interpretation and in this case appear as landscape. All of the photographs included in the series were made in a controlled situation. They were exhibited first at the Columbia Museum of Art.”

The mission of the South Carolina Arts Commission is to promote access to the arts and support the cultivation of creativity in South Carolina. We envision a South Carolina where the arts are valued and all people benefit from a variety of creative experiences.

A state agency created by the South Carolina General Assembly in 1967, the SCAC works to increase public participation in the arts through grants, direct programs, staff assistance and partnerships in artist development, arts industry, arts learning, creative placemaking, and folklife and traditional arts. Headquartered in Columbia, S.C., the SCAC is funded by the state of South Carolina, by the federal government through the National Endowment for the Arts, and other sources.
