Fundoshi Fantasia
Last week I ruminated for a sentence or two about the distinction between art and erotic art. This week I wonder, does it matter? All the best artists just say "keep making great art." If you don't call it art, if you call it sexual expression or if you do it just for the enjoyment rather than to put it in a frame, then so be it.
It's been a while since I've posted some of the great artwork featuring fundoshi that crowds these internet tubes. In some of these pieces, the intent is obviously sensual, in others it's harder to tell... but let's not kid. Like any image is a dance between artist and viewer, so are these.
