Pornography Gets A Museum Show
Even though the homemade stuff posted for free online has cut into its profits, pornography is still a $100 billion a year business worldwide. Southern California produces much of it, but guess where you have to go to see a distinguished museum’s exhibition devoted to porn?
It’s Vienna, the city where Sigmund Freud explored the dark recesses of consciousness that no one ever talked about. The exhibit at the prestigious Kunsthalle is called “The Porn Identity” and aims to shatter the taboo about smut, which is somehow everywhere and nowhere.
