Annie Sprinkle, Post-Porn Modernist
"We embrace our genitals as part, not separate from our spirits. We utilize sexually explicit words, pictures, performances to communicate our ideas and emotions. We denounce sexual censorship as anti-art and inhuman. We empower ourselves by this attitude of sex-positivism. And with this love of our sexual selves we have fun, heal the world and endure."
from the Post-Porn Modernist Manifesto, written by Veronica Vera, performed by Annie Sprinkle
"We, Elizabeth M. Stephens and Annie M. Sprinkle, are an artist couple committed to doing projects that explore, generate, and celebrate love. We utilize visual art, installation, theater pieces, interventions, live-art, exhibitions, lectures, printed matter and activism. Each year we orchestrate one or more interactive performance art weddings in collaboration with various national and international communities, then display the ephemera in art galleries. Our projects incorporate the colors and themes of the chakras, a structure inspired by Linda M. Montano’s 14 Years of Living Art. The Love Art Laboratory grew out of our response to the violence of war, the anti-gay marriage movement, and our prevailing culture of greed. Our projects are symbolic gestures intended to help make the world a more tolerant, sustainable, and peaceful place. This site is the Love Art Lab’s virtual home where we share our progress, documentation and findings. We are ecosexuals who have vowed to love, honor, and cherish the Earth, Sky and Sea until death brings us closer together forever." -- Love Art Laboratory
"The Earth is our lover. We are madly, passionately, and fiercely in love, and we are grateful for this relationship each and every day. In order to create a more mutual and sustainable relationship with the Earth, we collaborate with nature. We treat the Earth with kindness, respect and affection." -- Ecosexuality
