Dirty Show Detroit started ten years ago, as a showcase for erotic art of all forms and from all walks.
Each year the amount of art displayed, the multitudes of patrons, and the imagination and quality of the erotic works, grew exponentially.
None of the founders could have believed that the Dirty Show™ Detroit would become one of the largest and most well respected art shows of our time.
Now, in a world first, it is evolving into a gigantic international art phenomenon. This year, not only are they making the Dirty Show™ bigger with added exhibit space in Detroit, but they are planning simultaneous satellite Dirty Shows™ all over the world. Not only will this allow more erotic opportunities, it will help create a sense of community world wide.
The National Grid Gallery in Sydney will proudly be Hosting Dirty Show X Australia in February 2009.
Please visit our Website to download your entry form to submit work for Next years exhibition.
Entries close December 9th 2008.

“The one dollar bill is the most ubiquitous piece of paper in America. Collage asks the question: what might be done to make it something else? It is a ripe material: intaglio printed on sturdy linen stock, covered in decorative filigree, and steeped in symbolism and concept. Blade and glue transform it-reproducing the effects of tapestries, paints, engravings, mosaics, and computers-striving for something bizarre, beautiful, or unbelievable… the foreign in the familiar.” Mark Wagner
Go see this work for yourself, hours of work.
