SEX NOW

5 September 2025 - January 2026

Sex can be beautiful, exciting, provocative and political. With the exhibition SEX NOW, the NRW-Forum Düsseldorf invites visitors to rediscover sexuality in all its complexity. A central starting point of the exhibition is the observation that the sex industry has changed in recent years from a predominantly male-dominated industry to a more female-dominated industry. What are the reasons for this change?
From latex fashion, furniture design, queer photography, media art and Japanese woodcuts to dolls, machines and toys: In eleven themed rooms, the exhibition stages an intimate, critical and creative dialogue about sexuality and society, telling of erotic fantasies and new realities
