...already enmeshed in controversy over an earlier grant of $15,000 to photographer Andres Serrano, among whose works is a picture titled Piss Christ, depicting a crucifix submerged in the artist's urine. Mapplethorpe, who died of AIDS in March, produced equally provocative work: his oeuvre includes pictures of nude children in erotic poses, a man urinating into another's mouth, and other violent and homosexually explicit poses. When some of the work was exhibited at New York's Whitney Museum last summer, there were averted eyes, even among those who make a career out of being avant-garde...

It makes one wonder whether some of his other work is not also posed...
...audience were invited to lick it off; the scene was later shown on late-night TV. The capital even boasts its first touch of Times Square raunch, at the Tramway Workers' House of Culture, which last month began playing host three nights a week to a nude revue featuring a striptease and a simulated...
