(Photo : Reuters) Jennifer Lawrence is yet again a victim of the hackers who have posted another batch of her nude photos.

Nude photographs of celebs recently leaked by hackers could soon by shown on an exhibit at the Cory Allen Contemporary Art in Saint Petersburg, Florida. The said photos will be part of the "Fear Google" campaign of Los Angeles artist XVALA.

Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upton and Kirsten Dunst are among the long list of celebrities who have had their iCloud hacked. Photos of the actresses, along with numerous others, were uploaded in 4chan, an anonymous image-sharing website.

People will be able to view the uncensored nude photos at the XVALA's show entitled "No Delete" next month.

The exhibit will debut on October 30, but Lawrence, along with the other celebs involved, will more likely try to block the images from being part of the exhibit, especially after her legal team threatened prosecution on anyone who posts the stolen photos.

However, XVALA stated that he is not using the photos in a sexual or derogatory way. "I'm taking them off the internet and putting them into a new medium that is transformative. I'll be using them as commentary. I hope we don't need an attorney," he explained. 

The gallery shared that XVALA's show will exhibit his seven-year collection of images found on Google of celebrities in their most vulnerable and private moments.

The artist isn't a novice when it comes to using leaked nude photos of celebs in his work. In 2011, XVALA put up the leaked nude photos of actress Scarlett Johansson throughout Los Angeles. The "Fear Google" logo was placed on top of her private parts. 

Lawrence's lawyers might have a tough time battling it out with XVALA, especially since she wasn't the one who took the photos and, therefore doesn't technically own the copyright to them. 

Other celebs have denied that they were the ones in the nude photos, including singer Ariana Grande and former Nickelodeon star Victoria Justice.
