Thank you for the warning. Some people like to cast judgement about being overly zealous or prude with NSFW designation... But it's clear that being too cautious is better than the alternative.
Then there is a man's nipple plus, shock/horror, some people smoking. I imagine it is the latter that'll be horrifying you.
If I was tyrant-employer I would be sacking people for obsessively looking at their phones all day, rather than inadvertently looking at a nipple or two.
It's doubtful that anyone would fire an employee looking at fine art. The more realistic issue is that some coworker might be walking by and catch a 0.5 second glimpse, think they saw something that they didn't, maybe turn it into a bigger thing or at least start a conversation or two about it, and months later maybe a boss is less inclined to give a big raise or promotion, because there's a sliver of a worry that this person might be problematic.
It's never as black-and-white as "boss walks by and fires person looking at art."
tl;dr a series of satirical photos of people holding a piece of glass milled in the shape of a conventional, contemporary cellphone. For a longer video equivalent, see motherboard's youtube video review of a display phone https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CurrggRdaUY

Sure there is part of a painting of a naked lady, but is it art?

It seems to be the standard criticism of smart phones today; but it's in pretentious art form.
In these situations, I'm reminded of Bret Victor's criticism of planar interaction http://worrydream.com/#!/ABriefRantOnTheFutureOfInteractionD... . Unfortunately, until we are closer to programmable matter or an economic powerglove https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAeViKt45eA I doubt we will escape the local maxima of variety we can offer via a touchscreen
