Jonathan Yeo’s “Porn in the USA” showcases his skillfully oil-painted portraits of famous subjects ranging from Tiger Woods to Sarah Palin to Paris Hilton. He uses the art of collage to blend together hardcore pornographic images to create a likeness of his subjects. The visual trickery of these collages allows Yeo to deceive the viewer. At first glance, the explicit tone is most likely disregarded; only on closer inspection is the passion of the flesh revealed.
This exhibition features some of Yeo’s newest and most provocative works to date. JULY 9th- AUGUST 8th LAZARIDES, 320 N. Beverly Drive, Beverly Hills, CA 902010.
