EAW 2011 Call For Entries Deadline Extended

2011-08-30T12:31:00.000-07:00

Due to the SOE, and like the SOE, the deadline for submissions for 2011 EAW has been extended. But we cutting off on September 6th. Looking fwd to seeing more of you.

Erotic Art Week TT Call For Entries 2011

2011-06-26T13:37:00.000-07:00

This is our third year and our third call to artists for submissions. The week-long (10 days) erotic art event runs from 21st to 30th September and, like previous years, will be spread across a number of venues in the Woodbrook area. For 2011 our theme is “Temporalis”. Beauty, passion, sensuality and any-thing erotic, all seem to rise on the precious quality of being temporary, ending at any moment, fleeting...

We invite artists in every discipline to explore the temporal nature of the things that turn us on. This is the first year we've defined a theme and we invite your questions and discussion to advance, clarify and even broaden the investigation. If you're interested in submitting work for consideration see the application form below and just do it.

Feel free to forward this to other artists and enthusiasts who might be interested in joining this moment of exploration.

Time is the essence...

FOR LADIES ONLY: LIBERTINE 2 Man Missing In Action

2010-08-16T20:39:00.000-07:00

TWO THINGS

1. Man Missing Action

Libertine 2 -Independents is looking for one wild-card exotic erotic male dancer to replace one of the big men in the new cast. He had to "fly out". Speculation is that he was lured away from the show by a German lady, and is now living in a cage somewhere in Bacolet or Laaber (Germany) ...So, we're having a LIVE screening on Tuesday, 6pm at an undisclosed location. Direct those brave men - whosoever you determine to be "man-meat" - to Libertine. Libertine has an equal opportunity hiring policy - more speculation. They can send a brief note with pic to eroticartt@gmail.com. And remember, they're only shy if you let them get away with it.

2. Join the Screening Panel and Win BIG!

We're also looking for three women with good eyes to join the screening panel. Tell us why you think you're qualified to spot fine man-meat and you can take win your seat on the panel and free admission to The Independents.

ALL INFORMATION IS STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL - not speculation.

It's Independence - Stand up for something.

Join the Libertines on Facebook @ http://www.facebook.com/#!/event.php?eid=111874865533977&ref=ts.

Erotica For Card

2010-06-18T05:58:00.000-07:00

Erotic Week T&T launches its first Cell Phone Film Festival dubbed "Phone Bills". Cell phones are changing the way we relate socially and sexually. "Phone Bill" aims to explore the use of this new media in art and eroticism.

GUIDELINES
Films should be no longer than 5 minutes and signed releases must be submitted for any identifiable person/s appearing in the piece. You choose your subject, and style. We only remind you that EAW is exploring erotica - the suggestion of sex and sensuality; and not porn which is can be described as a presentation of the enactment of sex.

Time to shoot. The deadline for submissions is July 1st.

Work may be sent by submissions on DVD/CD to:

Richard Rawlins, CMB Advertising, 13 Rust Street St Clair;

or upload to a video hosting site like vimeo.com and send us a link;

or files up to 10MB may be emailed to eroticartt@gmail.com

And visit http://eroticartweektt.blogspot.com for further info.

Ken Doorson’s Tipple Box

Ken Doorson's Tipple Box on Van Sommelsdijckstraat, Paramaribo, Suriname, 26 February, 2010

A young woman poses with Ken Doorson’s Tipple Box on Van Sommelsdijckstraat, 26 February, 2010; photo by Richard Rawlins

Ken Doorson’s Tipple Box project is a series of three-sided red plexiglass boxes — illuminated from within and etched with the suggestive silhouettes of women — intended to be installed on the streets of Paramaribo (Suriname). A motion sensor atop each box triggers the internal light as pedestrians or cars pass by, alerting both ordinary passers-by and those with less innocent intentions that they have entered one of the city’s red-light districts.

The Curators of EAWTT are attempting to get the Tipple Box to exhibit at EAW2010.

Sex in the Park, and Its Sneaky Spectators

2010-04-21T09:55:00.000-07:00

WHY are the Japanese couples in Kohei Yoshiyuki’s photographs having sex outdoors? Was 1970s Tokyo so crowded, its apartments so small, that they were forced to seek privacy in public parks at night? And what about those peeping toms? Are the couples as oblivious as they seem to the gawkers trespassing on their nocturnal intimacy?
