Madrid exhibits Sarkozy's father's erotic art
Last week I wrote about the Madrid Erotic Festival (that starts today), so while the city seems to be in that groove, I thought some of you may be interested that the French President's 80 year old father, Pal Sarkozy, will be exhibiting his erotic and surrealistic art in the city.
It's an exhibition of 35 pieces combining painting with photomontage; one of them is that of Nicolas Sarkozy with an earring in the form of France's Legion of Honour award. Yup, weird huh. Just for that reason, it may be interesting especially if still artistic eroticism does it for you.
Called "Out Of Mind", the exhibition will be at Casa de Vacas cultural centre in Madrid's Retiro until July 13.
Address: Casa de Vacas, Paseo Colombia, near Retiro Park
