This supreme social and artistic exhibit of the erotic
illuminates the perception of sexuality through imagery. Voluptuous
scenes by local masters of art, such as Coleman and Mounib, combine
with selected hor d’ oeuvres and cocktails to express with finesse
what most find difficult to verbalize. The selections and illustrations
of this thoughtfully arranged and beautifully presented collection
are chosen not only to entertain and inform but also for life-enhancing
erotica. This Exhibit includes diverse and outstanding fine art nude,
erotic and sensual photography works by the most noted and talented
artists in Washington DC today.
