Art Practice Makes Art Pervert

June 2 Art PRACTICE MAKES ART PERVERT Curator: Dorothy R. Santos CENTER FOR SEX AND CULTURE 6-9 pm FreeArt PRACTICE MAKES ART PERVERT IS A SOLO EXHIBITION BY BAY AREA-based artist Dorian Katz curated by Dorothy R. Santos. Her drawing series 120 Days of Sodomy appropriates the Marquis de Sade's book title _120 Days of Sodom_. While Katz' non-human beings don recognizable human characteristics, they are whimsical and sometimes political hybrids and chimeras. Katz imagines a sex utopia that ponders what it would be like if humans were socialized like other species such as the bonobo monkey. Each drawing works towards understanding gender non-conforming beings through vibrant characters engaging in extreme sex acts, uninhibited gender expression and sexual liberation.
