POCATELLO -- Nude photographs included in an exhibit titled "God's Art" have prompted Idaho State University officials to cover windows at the art gallery featuring the display with paper and black drapes.

Officials also posted signs warning of adult content.

A portrait of the artist's very pregnant 22-year-old daughter was also removed from the Transitions Gallery's window before the opening last Monday in the Pond Student Union building.

Photographer Nick Homburg used four models and members of his own family for the art show.

He says the premise behind the show was to show the beauty of the human form. He says there's no sexual content.
