No public hair in Singapore
A book by Singaporean photographer, Leslie Kee has been banned (via) in the conservative city-state because of “excessive nudity”.
According to Information, Communications and the Arts Minister Lee Boon Yang, current guidelines do allow for nudity in artistic works including photography publications “provided they are suitably depicted.” However, Kee’s book, Superstars has been deemed beyond the pale because it featured “excessive nudity with photographs showing full frontal nudity, with public hair and genitals clearly visible.”
