Following the boom of the pornography industry in the 1970s, artworks that present explicit representations of sexuality critiqued both the industry and the art world. Over several decades, artists have transgressed not only the compartmentalization of art and pornography categories, but also the patriarchal dimension of art, commercial pornography and sexual norms. The essays in the Porn-O issue provide an overview of various art productions that feature a diversity of sexual representations through alternative, educational, gay, lesbian, dyke, queer, feminist and amateur pornography, which transforms the very contours of pornography, literally making it protean.
