The fine line between art’s tasteful nudes and pornography’s graphic takes on human sexuality will be blurred this month when Maccarone gallery in Los Angeles partners with Pornhub to present an exhibition called “The Pleasure Principle,” (Sept. 21–Nov. 23.).

Michele Maccarone is known for presenting challenging, occasionally impenetrable contemporary art by the likes of Bjarne Melgaard and, more recently, actor Jim Carrey.
