CAM4 Brings 'Cam Life' Exhibit to Museum of Sex

NEW YORK — New York's Museum of Sex and CAM4 have partnered to present "Cam Life: An Introduction to Webcam Culture," a new exhibition chronicling the rise of webcam culture, opening to the public next Thursday. 

As per museum reps, "Cam Life" is set to "delve into the untold history of cam and web chat, and the potential for internet broadcasting to blur the lines between public and private life."

"Considering the rise of virtual intimacy and the proliferation of erotica in numerous forms since the introduction of the World Wide Web, this exhibition investigates the complex evolution of sexual desire in the age of the Internet," a spokesperson commented. 

Comprised of exclusive interviews and content from "internet pioneers," along with original commissioned works by six contemporary artists and an "extensive collection of artifacts chronicling the expansion of sexual expression on the internet," the exhibit is set to explore the development and proliferation of camming "from early text-based chat rooms to high-definition explicit one-on-one intimacy."

Notably, "the show also introduces the booming professional cam studio industry in the developing nations of Romania and Colombia and features several interactive installations, including an audience participation cam stage."

"Cam Life" is curated by Serge Becker and Lissa Rivera, with text by Erika Blair, and introduction by Emily Witt, video curatorial assistance by Lindsay Dye, and live performance curatorial assistance by Leah Schrager. The exhibit will be on view with ongoing programming through May 31.
