Dirty Kunst - groupshow - Seventeen Gallery - London




Thursday 18th Nov - Thursday 23rd Dec 2010

Life is a four-letter word. So is art when pushed past polite boundaries. You don't have to be Lenny Bruce to know that the first commandment of comedy is 'leave half the audience laughing and the other half horrified.' Rude art, like rude words, straightens spines and unbuckles straitened belts. Filth frightens, provokes, angers and just plain disgusts. Sometimes it proves outright liberating. Reason and good sense often blanch when faced with graffiti on the bathroom wall.
