Erotic Art

QUEER SEX EXHIBITION OPEN CALL

This exhibition will contribute a queer visual vocabulary to erotica, recognising it as an influential force in fine arts. With LGBTQ+ representation becoming more commonly widespread, our queerness - our identities, our fantasies & our practices - is at times sacrificed or fetishised in an appeal to acceptance.

Shucking off this approach, queer erotica lays bare the way our lives (within ourselves and with others) push social and sexual boundaries. Across a diverse range of artistic mediums, we celebrate, mourn and fantasise about our sex lives and selves.

This exhibition will create a prioritisation from which to value forms of erotica that not only invite a queered gaze but incite a deeper connection to the whispered meanings of self and sexuality.

Erotic August

Erotic August is a festival in Washington, DC, cosponsored by Rhizome DC and DC Dada.

We seek participation including, but not limited to: visual, installation, and performance art for the month of August 2022.

About Erotic August:

We want to honor and respect, not shame and trigger.

We emphasize the joy, playfulness, and possibilities of erotic life.

We love the new, weird, and hard to categorize.

About You:

You bring new stories, perspectives, and voices, especially from erotically marginalized adult populations, including the elderly and people with disabilites.

You're excited to share your creations with the community of thought and the evolving public consciousness of erotiscism.
