Tuesday, August 12, 2008
The fourth German Bodypainting Festival was held Saturday and Sunday in Ingelheim am Rhein in the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate. Organizers Peter and Jörg Tronser claim that Ingelheim is the "German capital of bodypainting."Fifty-five body artists from the whole of Germany, Israel, the Netherlands, Belgium and Switzerland took part in the event.
The models had to stand completely still for hours as fantastic creations were painted onto their bodies.The artists used theatrical make-up which is resistant to sweat but comes off easily in the shower.The motto of this year's festival was "Exotic Beauty."
