Love Lust & Sex Symbols

2011 | 45 | Original Programming

They’re the people you fantasize about, the faces that stir you, and the bodies that define hot. They’re sex symbols – those icons of sensuality that captivate, titillate, and allow us to project our most intimate desires. From the curvaceous Marilyn Monroe to the androgynous idols of the 1970s, what makes a sex symbol is more than pure beauty. It’s the ability to tap into and represent the social and cultural politics of the time. Love|Lust: Sex Symbols explores how these unforgettable objects of desire personify generations, reflect popular tastes, and drive social change.
