The history of porn is damn exciting. It has come a long way from the discrete beginnings in the early sixties to pay per minute porn which we can see directly on our screen at home.
PORN-FROM ANDY WARHOL TO X-TUBE leads us through the decades. It only shows us how the industry developed but also how the porn stars themselves have changed. From Pop Art to homemade 10 minute porn videos that we upload on x-tube, from dark cinemas to glamorous galas, the world is porn!
