The latest guru of an art fad called "erased porn" is Stephen Irwin, notable for being the only person in history to blow off a BUTT Magazine interview. Here are some of his fun little artworks.
The Kentucky-based artist takes vintage porn magazines and rubs away at the gloss until only part of the original hardcore image remains. You can view the exhibit, which is lesbianically named, "Sometimes When We Touch," until November 29th at the Invisible-Exports gallery in New York City. Here's the artist's statement:
...He softens the blunt sexuality of the found image, abstracting the depicted scene into a vision far more ephemeral and imaginative, invoking a more suggestive and expansive erotic landscape of blah de la blahdity blah blah blahblah blah BLAH BLAH.
Here's some more info on the erased porn genre.
