Masturbating Art Slammed

The Sun reports that an artist has created a new art exhibition of drawings by masturbating over paper. Controversial performance artist Jordan McKenzie, 40, has made 55 images by ejaculating over canvas and sprinkling carbon over the results to immortalise them. The results of his labour entitled Spent are to go on display at the Centre for Recent Drawing in Highbury, north London, for a month. But Father Kit Cunningham, of St Etheldredas Church in Clerkenwell, said: “All we can do is pray for the artist.” The clergyman, based at the oldest Roman Catholic church in London, stressed: “The extraordinary thing is that someone actually thought it was art and put it on at his art gallery. Art lover and artist David Gleeson said: “Tracy Emin showed her knickers but this is a different thing entirely. Jordan, who intends to create three drawings a week, said: “This is only the first batch of them. I hope people will come and see them - not judge them out of hand.” (For full source and full article click the Headline). Irish Art
