LOS ANGELES, June 1 /PRNewswire/ -- The Erotica Los Angeles convention,
taking place June 18 thru June 20, 2004, is proud to announce its
sponsorship alliance with the famous Erotic Museum in Hollywood. As a
sponsor, The Erotic Museum in Hollywood will hold a special full-size
exhibit at the entrance of the show floor showcasing the best in erotic
sculpture, paintings and other art forms. The exhibit will highlight
current and anticipated presentations at The Erotic Museum.
"We are very excited about working with Erotica Los Angeles," stated Mark
Volper, CFO of The Erotic Museum. "Since we opened our doors in January,
our patrons and memberships have continued to grow. Our goal is to spread
the word and familiarize the city with our amazing venue. This exhibit also
provides a great forum for the public to experience new and established
artists specializing in erotica."
"Last year, more than 22,000 singles and couples attended Erotica Los
Angeles, and we expect to break those records this year," attests Chad
Beecher, Vice President of Marketing & Operations for ELA. "We are
confident that this natural alliance with The Erotic Museum will benefit
both entities in the long run."
The exhibit will feature the following special presentations:
* The Human Body Project -- untouched images of everyday people that
raise questions of attractiveness, gender and self-image.
* The San Fernando Says Project -- commentary, images and objects from
the epicenter of commercial sexuality in America featuring behind
the
scenes images from the adult film industry and a look at the way
adult
products strive to complete the fantasy.
In addition, the following works will also be highlighted: A multimedia
installation from San Francisco artist Rainey Strauss exploring the tactile
side of sensuality; images from New York bondage photographer Steven
Speliotis; the surreal, postmodern oil paintings of Paul Green; a new
invention from the bondage aisle at Home Depot by Greg Larson; large format
digital abstractions by Jeffrey Rothstein; an hour of short films from the
Museum Archive; and an expansion of the Museum's popular Toy Box where
visitors can explore a vast menagerie of adult surrogate objects in a safe,
caring environment. Please note, exhibitions are subject to change.
Erotica Los Angeles, now in its eighth consecutive year, is world-renowned
for introducing new products and concepts in the world of erotic
entertainment. Over the past decade, erotic entertainment has become more
accessible to the public and the erotic industry has become the subject of
mainstream network and cable shows. Erotica Los Angeles brings together
exhibitors and consumers in the most newsworthy and entertaining event of
the year.

The Erotic Museum follows in the tradition of similar museums in Amsterdam,
Paris, Barcelona, Hamburg, New York and Seoul. Focused mainly on the last
two centuries, the two-story museum offers 6,000 square feet of gallery and
retail exhibition space containing a range of fine art, folk art and works
more practical in form: from paintings and dioramas to sculptures and
machines to multimedia on display and inside a dedicated screening room. In
addition to "A Century of Sex in America" and permanent displays on Pablo
Picasso and Marilyn Monroe, its maiden exhibitions include "Sex and
Technology," a penetrating look into the evolution of fantasy and reality
through the prism of science and "Sex and the Muse," a look into the
inspirations that move artists to create great works.
The Erotic Museum is located at 6741 Hollywood Boulevard, Hollywood, CA
90028 and is open Sunday thru Thursday from 11:00 am until 9:00 pm and
Fridays and Saturdays from 11:00 am until midnight.
