So, WHAT IS EYEGASM?

It's a place for good artists to show their "other" work. It's a place to show that, just because we're perverts, doesn't mean we don't have taste. It's a place to let your sensual creativity flow!

Eyegasm is a occasional, weekend exhibit of erotic art. All artists are invited to enter their work for sale. The theme is variety in sexual expression, including spirituality. There are problems with showing erotic work, one of which is local ordinances about displaying and selling "pornography". The definition of "pornography" differs from town to town, and state to state. In most places, however, there are exceptions for private events. A private showing is usually exempt from the restrictions of public display, and we can show our stuff in peace. With that in mind, eyegasm shows are private events, and visitors are required to show ID before entering.

Eyegasm shows are in various places, as we can negotiate space for it.
We hope to keep the show inexpensive to members, and to artists. Entry fees for artists are based on the cost of the space.

Support your local pervert! Buy Eyegasm art! 85% of your money goes directly to the artists!

If you have any suggestions, want Eyegasm at your event, or want to volunteer, e-mail us at kinky@kinkyspot.com!

Eyegasm 2011 submission guidelines and general information

Location is 11910 Central SE, Date is April 23, 11am-9pm
There is no entry fee, or limit on submissions.  We will charge a 15% commission on sold work. Each entry must be properly prepared to show, and labeled, or it will not be displayed.

WHAT TO ENTER:  Originals, as well as prints are allowed. Please only submit one copy of any particular image.  Computer generated art will be considered, but should show more the creativity of the artist than the programmer.  All mediums are welcome, 2D or 3D. Please check first before bringing anything that sheds, or requires special handling.   All work must be for sale.  You may also hang a sign advertising yourself (no larger than 8 x 10 please) and put out business cards.

HOW TO PRESENT IT: Works on paper and prints should be matted and must have a firm backing.  A wire or other hanging device should be on the back.  (otherwise we’ll use a clip, which will dent the mat.)  Shrink wrapping or acetate bags are recommended. Paintings on firm backings such as canvas or masonite must have a wire or other hanging device on the back.  Frames are not required.  You may bring pedestals for your sculpture,  provided they can be easily moved by one person.  We will not have cases to put small items in, so bring them if you need them.

CONTENT: This is a pansexual, spiritual/erotic show, so just about anything goes. But, as much as we would like for this to truly be a "no limits" show, we do have to put some stops in, so the villagers don't show up with torches and pitchforks.

Children: No images of children will be allowed. Childlike mystical beings will be considered on an individual basis. Do not bring children with you to the show.

Violence and Horror: Violent images are allowed,  just keep in mind that we want to seduce people, not disgust them. We reserve the right to refuse artwork that is too disturbing.  It takes a lot to disturb our art director, so this will probably not be a problem.

Other issues may arise,  any exclusions are at the discretion and paranoia of the art director.

Notice to photographers!   Be prepared to show proof of age for all your models, even if they are clothed!  New regulations require this! This applies to any work with photography as part of the process.  Also, although animals may be included in the image, they may not be shown actually having intercourse with humans.  (applies only to photography)

HOW TO ENTER: Use the control sheet forms provided.  (print as many as you need)  Make a copy for yourself, and a copy for us.  A title/price tag must be attached to each piece. Pieces should have the tag visible from the front. Artwork may be delivered by hand to our location until April 22.  Be sure to call ahead to make sure someone will be there to accept your work. Call (505) 232-2161 or e-mail kinky@kinkyspot.com

We will not be taking mail-in art for this show, because of the short notice.

Work should be picked up no later than April 28. If this will not be possible, call or e-mail to make other arrangements.

SECURITY: The show will be monitored by Eyegasm staff at all times.  Backpacks, large satchels and cameras must be left at the door.   We will take all possible care to protect your work. (since we want you to enter again, next time!)  But we cannot make any promises, and all entries are at the artist's own risk.
