For the past 16 years, Detroit, MI has been home of the The Dirty Show, an International Erotic Art Exhibition. This years special Guest Artist is John Waters, and will perform his one man show “This Filthy World- Filthier and Dirtier” on Preview Thursday, February 12th. I recently saw his special on Netflix and if this performance is anything like it, it’s bound to be highly entertaining.

Prints: “The Sisters” by Saturno Butto @ Von Scarmouche
Von Scaramouche added a new print by Saturno Butto to the online shop entitled “The Sisters”. The print is 22″ x 22″ Hahnemühle Fine Art Pearl paper with Epson Ultrachrome inks, signed and numbered in an edition of 50. The print will be $110 for the first day and then will jump to $125 the following day. This is an outstanding looking print, and it’s something that doesn’t come around very often as Saturno rarely releases prints. The bottom image shows a darker version of the print, but I am told that it is based on the photo of the print.

“The Mad Potters Tea Party” @ Strychnin gallery
This past Friday, February 4th, Strychnin Gallery opened of the more unique shows I have seen in a while. “The Mad Potters Tea Party” features custom designed ceramics from over 100 international artists. Limited edition plates, teapots, vases, teacups and saucers created by artists such as Chris Mars, Ray Caesar, KRK Ryden, Caitlin Hackett, David Stein, Seymour, David Stoupakis, Camilla d’Errico, Kristen Ferrell, Bethany Marchman, Jason Jacenko, David Hochbaum, Saturno Buttò, Martina Secondo Russo, Ver Mar, Scott Holloway, Edith Lebeau, Brian Horton, and many more. I thought it was a great idea when some limited edition cups and saucers were released by UK’s This is Limited Edition, and most of these sets of long since sold out. The ceramics seen here at Strychnin are far more limited and unique. Chris Mars for example has created some round, plate style paintings before (featured), however I was really surprised to see how amazing his works looks on a Durham vase and Teapot. Make sure you check out this show after you look at the preview images.
