Art opening: 'Speaking To Las Vegas in the Language of Las Vegas' at Femina PotensOPENING RECEPTION SATURDAY NIGHT! JULY 3 'Speaking To Las Vegas in the Language of Las Vegas' VISUAL ART EXHIBIT BY Laurenn McCubbin Femina Potens is tickled pink to introduce you to the multi-dimensional world of Sex Workers. This July we bring you a stunning multimedia art installation that combines a performance, video and illustrated portraits of real Las Vegas Sex Workers by artist, Laurenn McCubbin. We are pleased to present her amazing, graphically-explicit one-woman show all month long! Considering the current flaccid economic climate, McCubbin illuminates the underground yet highly visible economic exchange that is Las Vegas sex work. The artist questions the relationship between the economy of Sin City and the illegal activities that give it its infamous status. McCubbin seizes the perfect moment to expose the backhanded and contradictory legalities of sex work through recreating "hooker cards," in her own graphically bold visual style. The artist uses her personal history as a sex worker to affirm her message in a uniquely proactive and sex-positive manner. And of course, it wouldn't be a Femina Potens event if we didn't get your blood flowing! We invite you to the Opening Reception at 7pm, including a sizzling Artist Performance at 9pm on the evening of Saturday, July 3rd, 2010. Enjoy refreshments and libations during the opening reception as we tell the stories of these sex-positive individuals and their work. Come introduce yourself to a pioneer in the underground world of sex work. Join us all month long as we present you with an array of exciting workshops, performances and events. Show runs through July 31, 2010. 'Speaking To Las Vegas in the Language of Las Vegas' Hours: Thurs-Sun, Noon-6:00pm Support cutting edge artwork - Become a member today!
