NEW YORK—Satisfyer, an award-winning global sexual wellness company, is sponsoring a new exhibition at the Museum of Sex in New York City, Portia Munson: The Pink Bedroom, which opened to the public on Jan. 27. In this exhibition, American visual artist Munson, has created a world of pink that prompts reflection on the correlation between mass consumerism, constructions of femininity, and sexual objectification. This is the first time Munson's work will be presented at the Museum of Sex.
Satisfyer seeks to be an agent of change to encourage conversation around sexual health and wellness, with the ultimate goal of reducing stigma in the category. By partnering with the Museum of Sex and Munson, Satisfyer is demonstrating its commitment by providing consumers with an educational look at femininity and mass consumerism through thoughtfully curated art.
In Portia Munson: The Pink Bedroom, visitors will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in Munson's new work and thirty years of her Pink Project (1994-ongoing) series. The exhibition includes works created especially for the show, such as a large-scale, site-specific installation of the Pink Project: Bedroom a new sculpture titled Nude II (2022), and graphite drawings featuring sex toys.
Satisfyer president Julia Pokryshka said, "We are excited to expand our partnership with the Museum of Sex and work with the talented Portia Munson on this influential exhibition that celebrates sexuality and prompts advocacy. At Satisfyer, we support the intersection between art and sexuality and understand the importance of this culturally impactful display of femininity. We're looking forward to seeing how consumers react and encourage them to explore their own sensuality as a result."
Visitors attending the exhibition also can purchase a variety of Satisfyer products at the Museum of Sex retail store and will also have the opportunity to win a Satisfyer prize in the Cupid's Arrow game inside of Super Funland.
The Museum of Sex head of sales and merchandising Kit Richardson said, "The Museum of Sex supports public discourse and engagement around sex—and our retail shop is an important element where visitors can take home a piece of our mission with them. We share Satisfyer's dedication to creating pleasurable, multi-sensory experiences for all—and are proud to partner with their team as a sponsor of this important exhibition."
This exhibition will be on view at the Museum of Sex in New York until July 2023. Visitors can purchase tickets for museum entry on museumofsex.com.
