Gawker Artists presents NSFW (Not Safe For Work), a group show of works by Gawker Artists Steve Ellis, Emiliano Granado , Justin Lai, Heather Morgan, and Randy Polumbo, and the latest exhibition in the Art@Gawker series.

Featuring sexually suggestive works typically considered off limits for the workplace, NSFW highlights Gawker Artists’ playful irreverence and ongoing exploration of the boundaries and roles of corporate art programs.

Each of the works in NSFW recontextualizes its subject, inspiring new interpretations of their beauty, intention and importance via timeless isolation and mischievous tribute. Simultaneously uncomfortable, shocking, and humorous, the works force the viewer to question their own definitions of sexual objects and acts. As a whole, NSFW questions the meaning, role, and audience of sexually provocative art work, in the context of a corporate setting which commonly avoids works that are not safe.
