POPSKunstmarkt K06eSh0 Rund 75'000 Menschen besuchten im März 2008 die European Fine Art Foundation (TEFAF) in den Niederlanden, auf der Kunstwerke im Wert von vielen Milliarden US-Dollar angeboten wurden. der Bekanntheitsgrad eines Künstlers in der Fachwelt steigt, wenn seine Werke in möglichst vielen Ländern ausgestellt werden. Charles Saatchi, ein Händler für zeitgenössische Kunst, betreibt ein Onlinenetzwerk mit über 65000 Künstlern, die ihre Arbeiten kommissionsfrei über Saatchis Website anbieten. Sie verzeichnet monatlich knapp 900000 Besucher. Über 7 Prozent aller Auktionsverkäufe gingen im Jahr 2007 auf das Konto von China, das Land steht damit weltweit an dritter Stelle.

POPSSeduced: Art and Sex from Antiquity to Now "The art of seduction: sex through the ages, from every possible angle. From ancient miniatures to modern film, 2,000 years of civilisation's frankest moments go on show."

That means, come Friday, the first ever mainstream exhibition devoted to sex will be unleashed upon an unsuspecting British public. "According to co-curator Martin Kemp: "We are not setting out to shock, but it is certainly provoking." Marina Wallace, another of the curators, added: "We want London to be thinking about nothing but sex for three months." Kosher for UK! Kosher for USA ?
