"Untitled" 1963. Red ink on paper.
People have created sexually oriented imagery since pre-historic times, and I'm proud to follow in this noble and worthy tradition. I love to help pioneer new forms and genres of porn, erotic art, and sex education. I am a "Post Porn Modernist" and a "love artist".

Hardcore from the Heart: The Pleasures, Profits And Politics of Sex in Performance
Pornography, on or off the stage in an inflammatory issue, and one which is deeply linked to theatrical representation throughout history. But what happens to the notions of the pornographic when a female performer subverts the conventional models of pornographic representation by reclaiming the agency of her own body? Hardcore from the Heart presents a number of Annie Sprinkle's key performance texts and essays, and interviews with artists who have worked closely with her over the years, together with a critical introduction and commentaries.
