Opening Reception – MARCH 2:
Sangria Fine Arts announces “Sex and Candy.” We’ve got a full dish of erotic art by promising emergent artists to prominent mid-career artists. Each artist for this show was asked to think about new sensations, where the pleasure lasts longer. They were asked about their ‘tease’ in the context of their work, and how they seduce the viewer. Many works contributed are satirical, making you laugh, then think. The combination of satire and sex always tests our sense of social and civil liberties.
Alex Schaefer will be “live painting.”
