Mirat presents Erotic Stories a study of erotic works through time. This is one of the first exhibitions dedicated to erotic art in Spain and one of the few that have been showcased around the world.
Erotic art is much more than risqué works, it is an observation of the world that surrounds us, is about sexuality, what is forbidden and the instinctive. Erotic art is intersectional/transversal it can be political, sacred, ironic, or have other meanings. However, not all erotic art is the same, it can be explicit, or implied, and it also can be revealing or very prudent.
Erotic Stories showcases works by established artists such as Pablo Picasso, Andre Derain, David Salle, Bern Stern or Robert Mapplethorpe, who invite the viewer to reflect along emerging artists such as Miranda Makaroff, Carla Cascales or Mei Morettini, and artistic creations from other cultures/periods such as "shunga" illustrations or African sculptures from the 19th century carved in wood.
