Bill Henson photographs removed
Works from a photography exhibition by Bill Henson have been removed by Australian police from Roslyn Oxley9, a Sydney art gallery. The confiscated photographs are images of a naked teenaged girl. Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd has described them as "revolting", and censored versions of some images have been shown by ABC TV in Australia. (Nude images of minors have been removed from galleries in the past, most recently the Nan Goldin photograph investigated, and subsequently exonerated, by UK police last year.)
