But Is It Art? Erotic Video On Display

Post by Hawq »

A video of a woman masturbating is to go on display at London's Tate Modern.Berlin-based artist Dorothy Iannone is said to "celebrate erotic love" in her work.She is the first artist selected for a new one-metre square space at the flagship gallery.

The video, named I Was Thinking of You, shows the face of the American-born artist masturbating.

It was made in 1975 when Iannone was 42 and will be shown on a small screen on a new "orgasm box".

The colourful box is decorated with erotic figures of a naked man and woman.

The Wrong Gallery, in which the video is being shown, is a tiny exhibition space which can only been seen through a locked glass door.
source wait... does this mean I've been looking at downloaded art all this time? :?

Yeah, exactly. That's the point of art--self expression. I wouldn't want art censored.. portraits of Jesus are pretty boring.

Only if your a name. The artsy type are really odd. A no name artist could paint a picture perfect painting and it would impress nobody, but then you take a popular artist and they can throw paint on a canvas and make up some crap about how they was angry and wanted to express it. Then that painting will sell for big bucks.

If it's just her face and it isn't the "money shot," I don't see how you can call that porn. I know I'd be disappointed if that's what was passing for a dirty video.

Oh, absolutely not! Don't worry, my friend! That was plain, good old-fashioned porno you downloaded! You have not been led astray!

thats basically what we saw in a museum we went to 3 days ago.

a pile of vibrators and other sex toys + a tv showing some porn video.

they were kind enough to set a sign next to it "only for 18+"...
