The exhibition sponsor, The Lifestyles Organization, is firm in the belief that artistic expression in all forms is protected by the Bill of Rights and must not be subject to Government control, restriction or censorship in any manner. This exhibition of the most significant developments in Erotic art in America reigns as the longest running continuous survey in America. It will have a performance art area, projection facilities for digital and video art and a spacious opportunity for installation art. In this dramatic age values and communication about sex have new direction. Our attempts to understand, to use, and to transform is ultimately what the artist employs to express himself.
Art is the language that communicates all changes in human activities.
For the artists in this exhibition sex is a recurring theme, and even more for those first starting to use it, there can be no doubt that new directions have been laid down in the last quarter century. These artists by investigating new media have opened the perspective on a free development while liberating art not only from the imitation of the real thing but also from its censorship. In any event, the situation is intensely complicated by the diversification of new tendencies in art. Conceptualism bases its development on the preceding modern movement and absorbs its formal field of perception then blends with even older generations. The neo-dadaists groups and pop, of the 60's and 70's, prepared the ground for new movements and experiences such as performance and installation art.
