Abstract
In Summer 1991 a local British authority was accused of
censorship after cancelling an exhibition of images by gay and
lesbian photographers: the Ecstatic Antibody touring exhibition.
Emmanuel Cooper, author of the book ""Fully Exposed, The Male
Nude in Photography'' acknowledges in this article the
difficulties of defending ""freedom of expression'', but argues
that artists must be free to produce contentious work for
contentious times. Some information on British law dealing with
obscenity is given.
