Have you ever wanted to see you face on a billboard? What about your bare ass or a creatively placed nipple? Such is the award awaiting the winner of Christiania Vodka's "The New Nude" challenge, a marketing stunt art competition, that asks the public to create the "most compelling modern vision of the human form." What that has to do with Norwegian vodka, we have no idea, but they've set up a website (lurkers welcome!) to accept and display submissions of paintings, photos, and other representations of the nude body. There are still two days left if you want to submit your own and the winning entry will be displayed on a billboard rising above the corner of Grand St. and West Broadway in Manhattan, which means millions of jaded New Yorkers will walk under your image everyday and refuse to look up at it. So get to work ... those nude bodies won't paint themselves.
