It’s about to heat up in Miami thanks to Erotic Signature’s launch of ART Undressed, an international erotic art festival which will unveil the winners of this year’s Erotic Signature’s erotic art challenge. Although art is the focal point, this event is hailed as an international celebration of erotica in music, fashion, and entertainment.

What began as an on-line competition three years ago has now transformed into a widely successful book compilation entitled The World’s Greatest Erotic Art of Today Vol II.  This will be launched during ART Undressed, showcasing the 200 artists and photographers selected from almost 1500 entries.  To promote the artists further, ART Undressedwill be hitting the road and travelling to Los Angeles, New York, Amsterdam, Berlin, and London.

The festival weekend will begin with a pre-party on Friday evening at the White Room in Downtown Miami. Saturday morning’s festivities will start with a brunch at Soho Studios, followed by the opening of the art exhibition on location. The other venue which will be displaying erotic art will be the World Erotic Museum. 

As Fritz “E” Romeus, PR Director for Erotic Signature, remarks: “So far, we have already confirmed over 300 artworks from more than 140 winning artists; about 60 of these artists will be flying to Miami to attend the event. It is programmed to be a weekend that will present all aspects of eroticism in art, music, fashion and entertainment.”
