Prostitution, pornography and flesh is the second largest market force after the arms trade. Surrounded by conflicting laws and statistics it is a difficult subject that, in reality, is closer than we think to our everyday life. 'Seville Ciudad Libre de Explotacion Sexual' is a unique new exhibition that allows us to examine these contrary emotions.

Sensitisation does not always have to come from lived experience, exposure, humiliation, revolution, necessity. It can also come through the work of artists in many media. They bring us to the edge of our culture, to the communal window, even if we are not going to be able to get further than that. However, the communal window is a major step in the right direction; it allows us to open it and to dialogue with others of the same or different cultures.

More than that, artists help up to detect what the future holds in store and make us face & debate some of the more difficult aspects of life.
