Mexicans are open-minded when it comes to baring all for the camera, says American photographer Spencer Tunick, who is returning to Mexico City for another mass nude shoot.

Famous for his international shoots of nude men and women in public places, Tunick invited Chilangos to the zócalo in 2007 and 18,000 people turned out, setting a record by doubling the previous one of 7,000 set in Barcelona in 2003.

In the 2007 event, male and female volunteers posed in various positions, lying on the ground, crouched fetal-style and others.

Details of the new project have not been completed, and the photographer is looking for a women’s group to become involved, but Tunick says he will be inviting thousands of women to participate.

In an interview during an event in San Miguel de Allende, he said his ultimate dream is to stage an event with thousands of nude people in a public place in Washington, DC.
