doggy style, money shots, ... "Come on, this isn't art it's porn." But that's just me. i have huge difficulties with artists who try to elevate porn to a level of art. i have yet to find one artist in any medium to do so successfully. ... Full stop "hairy beaver" shot.) The list is endless: one age's porn is another's erotica is another's "nudes" is another's "high art celebrating the body". It's all hormone driven crap. ...some art that was considered pornographic in their day are modest in the present day context. nudes, ... i'm not a huge fan of nudes. hell, ... "hairy beaver" shot. ... perhaps his original intent was strictly for jerk off fodder. i find it gratuitous and in your face (pun intended) with little to no artistic value. ... not art to me. ... "it's just a hairy beaver shot." The only art that I find has any artistic value is that which can simultaneously draw a wide range of emotions from people. One person looks at painting and cries, "pornography!" Another looks at it and is bored. Another looks at it and finds it hilarious. Another looks at it and falls to the ground crying because he's just seen something so beautiful. That's the kind of art that has value to me. ... it does nothing for me at all. we all do it, i don't need see it and it most certianly isn't art if it's something everyone can and does do. Sex is a major part of our lives (even if we're not getting any it looms large in our consciousness), so it's only natural that it should be an important theme in art. You could argue that this or that piece of art is good or bad, but to say art shouldn't ever depict this particular part of our lives seems absurd. In fact, even if sex is just being depicted for the titillation of the viewer, that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Of course most porn demeans women, which is a bad thing, but if sexual subject matter is included in art or entertainment that isn't demeaning to anyone then I say "Why the hell not?" Like we shouldn't do landscapes because anyone can look out the window? It`s one of the most common theme ever but apart from means to arousal, very rarely something really interesting is said about it. The "good" art is suppose to make you think. When we`ll be fine enough to not need a lot of thinking anymore, than the "good" art will be about emotions and simulations. Lord: I've been feeling this way for a while now. Am I pussy? ... we have a problem. Psychopathic problems. "Art is communication - It is the facculty to manipulate people. I wonder what weird stuff these persons possibly watch? Alien porn?(?) ..."Dirty Picture", a funny porn picture Porn is everywhere and it might be one responsability for artists to comment about it. When they do, the results are often confusing, or treat about every other aspects of porn than the sex itself. sort of a celebration of love, sex, desire, while demonstrating a big irony. Is sex such a bad thing ? They got a kid so I suppose it`s understood that they didn`t mind that their kid saw an image of his >But > that's just me. Porn is an art. That is why so much of it is really bad. but there will always be serious ethical problems regarding porn, no, not everyone can paint. so either paint a beautiful landscape, if you can or look out the window. but everyone can fuck and take photos and videos. people do it all the time and post the results on the internet but it doesn't make it art Look, you could write an artistic appraisal of the Roman amphitheatre. It's still a bunch of people being mauled by lions. You can't fool me by _explaining_ it. As for people canning their own shit - now that hurts nobody! attention = learning eyes-glued-to-set = attention Some ancient hippy said good art has something to do with beauty and truth. I think that's probably right. just think there are more effective and subtle ways to get a point across > than a blatant in your face crotch shot or cum shot or whatever. Oh yeah, I agree there. But there's bad art everywhere, regardless of subject matter. challenging them to think about things they don't want to think about. May we have good fucks and good exhibits in our galleries. Good art can have sex in it. Good sex can have art in it! "I don't know what the definition of pornography is and nobody else does either. Pornography is somebody else's erotica that you don't like. People are interested in their own sexuality and they've always reflected it in their art. End of story." - Erica Jong
