Sex Meets Art: On Condoms

artimg.pngJenn Ramsey at AVN has picked up on Art Condoms and has written a bit about the project:

The Art Condom project began in March 2007. The line features designs by artists like Robert Williams, Coop, Peter Bagge, Trevor Brown, Peter Kuper, Ron English, Johnny Ryan, Winston Smith and the SubGenius Foundation. "It's part of our mission here at Condomania to make safer sex accessible, fun and exciting," Segall explained. "The Art Condoms project has been a great opportunity to fulfill that goal while working with some of my favorite artists in the lowbrow art scene."

Leah Garchik on Winston Smith

Collage artist Winston Smith sends word that his "Cross of Dollars," conceived in 1978 and to have been his "star piece" in a current Oklahoma City art expo, was not shown because someone on the City Arts Centre's board of directors found it offensive. The work features religious symbolism and greenbacks, and Smith is proud it's still packing a wallop.

He also sends word of a new line of condoms featuring his art. This innovation makes Smith one of the rare artists whose work has been on New Yorker covers and ... well, you know where.
