Erotica is based on a neon work that Jonathan Monk installed in the shop window at BQ, Berlin, in 2010. When Jonathan walked past the gallery he realized that the neon writing “sex kino” in the window of a sex shop on the other side of the street was mirrored in the window of the gallery. He therefore decided to install a neon work in the window of the gallery, connecting the two spaces of presentation through analogy and opposition. The publication juxtaposes photographs of the gallery offices and the sex shop with an attentive eye to correlative spacial and environmental markers.
