This work studies representations of the body produced within the nudist movement by looking into debates over photographs published in nudist magazines during the 1950s in Rio de Janeiro. Besides magazines themselves, newspapers, legal documents and books will be used as primary sources addressed through the concept of representation (CHARTIER, 2002). It was found that nudist publications and the expansion of the movement’s practices produced representations that show tension regarding the importance of bodies and body exposure in Rio de Janeiro’s society of that time.
