SUMMARY:นิทรรศการ \"SEX\"
DESCRIPTION:SEXCurated by Brian Curtin and Ohm Phanphiroj Toot Yung G
 allery, Bangkok16 December – 20 January 2011Opening reception on Fri
 day, 16 December 2011, from 7pmImathai Suwatthanasilp Michael Shaowan
 asaiOhm PhanphirojStephen ChalmersTada HengsapkulTawan WattuyaThunska 
 PansittivorakulToot Yung Gallery is very pleased to announce an exhibi
 tion of visual art that claims a sensational topic in order to confron
 t and play with its implications and ramifications. Stephen Chalmers 
 photographs rural sites where serial killers dumped their victims of h
 orrendous acts, long after the fact. These works provoke the dark extr
 emes of our imaginations while paradoxically refusing the spectacle of
  sex and death. Tada Hengsapkul employs pornographic and art historica
 l codes to insist on sexual expression as a form of power and confront
 ation. His chiaroscuro photographs of bodies and couplings also demand
  that sexual explicitness and aesthetics not be considered antithetica
 l. Ohm Phanphiroj’s sun-kissed portraits of undressed men emerge fro
 m personal encounters to become universal paeans to seduction and lust
 . Michael Shaowanasai examines the bland categorical terms by which tr
 ansgressive sexual desires and practices can be represented; Shaowanas
 ai re-images flyers and other ephemera from European sex clubs. Thunsk
 a Pansittivorakul and Imathai Suwatthanasilp appropriate symbolism fro
 m everyday life to suggest how sexuality can be a productive force in 
 seeing the world afresh. And Tawan Wattuya faces the gritty, bodily, 
 terms by which sex and sexuality is performed.Preeminent scholars of s
 exual representation have long since pointed out that only the laziest
  understandings believe images of sex and sexuality to be self-evident
  in their meaning or significance. Moreover, it is misguided to percei
 ve the production of such imagery as always relative to taboo and proh
 ibition. SEX embraces complexity and diversity with the aim of raising
  urgent local questions about relationships between art practice, the 
 politics and pleasures of visual culture, and the terms of interpretat
 ion and subjectivity. TOOT YUNG GALLERY - www.tootyunggallery.com –
