ARE YOU READY FOR TRUE PASSION?

Come As You Are: HOUSTON! opens at DiverseWorks this weekend!
Jonatan Lopez gives us a preview of his work, Latin Lover Conservation, in the performance showcase.





The Latin Lover Conservation is a performance art piece and a social experiment. LLC, globally supports the efforts to better the lives of Latin Lovers and preserve their culture by auctioning their romantic services to our community at selected art events.The funds collected would be used primarily to provide them with affordable living and ease college tuition costs. These young Latinos are a talented and passionate kind. Their place in my performance as conceptual/commercial art does not only objectify them but it dignifies them too. They are sculptures to me. The world must enjoy them as the enjoy the world. Please feel free to interact with them and set the highest bid to win “A Date with a Latin Lover” as you help us preserve this peculiar species. Because without Latin Lovers , there would be no True Passion.

Come As You Are: HOUSTON!
September 17 & 18, 2010, 7:30pm

Tickets are $5.00 and a reception and discussion will follow the performance.
