A decade long tradition in Detroit, The Dirty Show opened its first exhibition in LA on Friday at the City Center Motel in Downtown LA.  Featuring a vide variety of erotic art, the exhibition celebrates and questions the nature and varieties of desire.  This is art stripped down in a decaying motel devoid of the bright lights and pristine walls of traditional galleries.  Curated by Jerry Vile , the large group show features several well-known artists including HR Giger, Colin Christian (above), Tristan Eaton, Glenn Barr, and Brian Viveros. In addition to the art exhibit, several Suicide Girl modes added undeniable spice to the evening.  The carefully selected pictures after the jump while arguably tasteful, are definitely not work safe.  The two day show ends tonight (11.14).

The Dirty Show showcasing a wide range of erotic art hits Los Angeles this weekend with a two-day motel take-over show at the City Center Motel in downtown starting on Friday the 13th and running through Saturday the 14th (7-11 PM both nights). While the Dirty Show is an annual tradition in Detroit, we believe this is the first time its made its way to the City of Angels.  The large group show features numerous artists spanning multiple mediums – painting, sculpture, photography and more: Clive Barker, HR Giger, Eric Kroll, Glenn Barr, Colin Christian, Tristan Eaton, Brian Viveros,  Niagara, The Pizz, Ken Keirns and more.

As you might expect given the theme, this is 18+ and over, i.d.’s will be checked. There’s a $10 minimum donation at the door (excess funds will be donated to cancer research) and cameras are not allowed.
