The Naked and the Nude is the name of a current show at the Art Gallery of Ballarat in Victoria. It features paintings, drawings and sculpture of the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries. The exhibition provides a serious exploration of the way in which the naked body has been portrayed in Australian art and the changing meanings associated with nudity.

Amanda Smith takes a walk around the exhibition with the gallery's director, Gordon Morrison.
