In response to this, a woman working for the museum got naked on top of the installation to reciprocate the man’s artistic gesture, Index reports.

There is a whole lot of nakedness going on in Szentendre.

How it all started

A special art installation appeared in the Czóbel Museum of Szentendre. The artist’s, Erik Mátrai’s sight-specific installation is called ‘View’, and it is located in the inner garden of the Czóbel Museum. According to the art festival Art Capital’s website:

“it is a climbable, functioning high stand, which offers visitors a view that they otherwise would not have the opportunity to behold. The construct provides a panorama of Szentendre, a city whose church spires and rooftops create a unique structural pattern, which has always been a source of great inspirations to the artists that have worked there. Aside from that, however, the high stand can also be regarded as an expression of the human drive to move upwards, to step outside the enclosed garden.”
