Museums tired of censoring their images on Facebook and Instagram and opened an στο OnlyFans account

In some historical periods, such as in Ancient Greece, it seemed that no artist could work without receiving the feedback that “hm, the work is good, but would it be better to have his genitals out?”. Then there are other times when artists have gone beyond what people find acceptable.

Either way, the result was the same: The museums they are full of statues and paintings of naked people. This is a problem when museums try to share the work on social media with the “nude” rules now being extremely strict.

The Vienna Tourist Board is tired of constantly removing content from Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, decided to follow the obvious solution: Start their own page on OnlyFans. With a simple registration, users can admire exhibits from 4 museums and other cultural institutions in Vienna.

“It is not possible for an algorithm to determine our cultural heritage”

“Right now, an algorithm determines what is okay to see and what is not,” Vienna Tourism Council spokeswoman Elena Hartlauer told NBC News. “And it certainly should not determine our cultural heritage.”

“Over the years, Vienna has hosted some of the world’s most famous artists – including Egon Schiele and Koloman Moser, whose works have surpassed those considered acceptable in art and society at the time,” the Council wrote in his decision to create an account on the site, which has become synonymous with providing nudity and paid porn.

“And the fight against censorship continues: with the rise of social media, such bans are back on the front pages. “Giants of social networks such as Instagram and Facebook have the naked and” lewd “content constantly in their sights”.

Vienna and its art institutions are among the victims of this new wave of censorship – with nude statues and famous blacklisted works of art following instructions from social media and repeat offenders even finding their accounts suspended. That’s why we decided to put the world – famous capital in OnlyFans. By putting Vienna’s 18+ historical content on OnlyFans, subscribers can now see challenging work by Egon Schiele, Richard Gerstl, Koloman Moser and Amedeo Modigliani.

On their OnlyFans page, you can see paintings from Egon Schiele’s Two Squatting Women to Peter Paul Rubens’s wife, Helena Fourment, coming out of the bathroom.

“We decided to try to start a discussion on this issue because we thought it would be very… Vienna,” Hartlauer told NBC News. “Because Vienna has always been a city with a very open mind. “We believe that it is important for the institutions of Vienna in general to have room for different ideas, and we are not afraid of the naked truth.”

Subscribers to the OnlyFans page can receive a free Vienna City Card or an entrance ticket to one of the museums displayed on the OnlyFans channel by sending a receipt to their respective institution.
