Take a stroll through the Carnegie Museum of Art and you'd never guess that Pittsburghers are uptight about nudity. The very first piece of art you see as you enter the facility from the parking garage is a nude woman, sitting thoughtfully, her arms resting on her bent knees. No one seemed to mind her presence in the courtyard -- not the handful of people having lunch at nearby picnic tables or dozen or so 5- to 8-year-olds sitting about 15 feet away, talking with a museum educator.
