'Sexual Explosion," the
controversial
nude painting by Neo-Surrealist Jim Warren that best epitomized the
Sexual Revolution in the seventies, and after being originally banned
from public exhibition in the United States for being "obscene and
sexually explicit," like the mythical phoenix that rises from the ashes,
the magical and shocking "Sexual Explosion" painting is suddenly
achieving history-making news, documented by the fact that it is being
distributed all over the world after being named on March 17, 2011 "The
World's Most Famous Nude Painting since the Nudes of Picasso, Dali and
Modigliani." "Sexual Explosion" is now capturing the hearts and souls
of a mass international public with a momentum that is being called an

"SEXUAL EXPLOSION" BY
JIM WARREN "THE WORLD'S
MOST FAMOUS NUDE PAINTING"
 In
unprecedented art news, Jim Warren's
controversial nude painting, "Sexual Explosion," banned in the United
States from public exhibition for being "obscene and sexually explicit,"
is
suddenly the World's
Most Famous Nude Painting in Art History
New York, NY (PRWEB) April 15, 2011
In what is being reported as the most unprecedented "public interest"
art story in years, the new "Sexual Explosion" phenomena is hitting on
all news and media fronts in what appears to be unstoppable momentum.
Based on the amount of "reads" and "impressions" it is earning,
especially throughout the United States and Europe, it appears that mass
public interest is mounting; and that "Sexual Explosion," Jim Warren's
controversial nude painting, is capturing the heart and soul of not only
people in the arts but also of people in the street who are discovering
the astonishing iconic image of "Sexual Explosion" for the first time.
The "Sexual Explosion" intriguing story immediately became a new
world-wide phenomena on March 17, 2011. It is special news when a
painting that had been banned from public exhibition 35 years ago for
being "obscene and sexually explicit" suddenly becomes the talk of the
art world. This is exactly what happened after "Sexual Explosion" was
named the World's Most Famous Nude Painting Since the Nudes of Picasso,
Dali and Modigliani on March 17, 2011. This history-making event is
similar in scope to the attention that Pop Music sensation Lady Gaga
received when her "Bad Romance" pop music video broke all viewing
records on YouTube (topping Queen Madonna's reign) and she, too, like
"Sexual Explosion," captured the imagination of an adoring public.
Documented by new evidence from Google Search and Yahoo Search
engines, "Sexual Explosion" has literally and officially "exploded" onto
the art scene. "Sexual Explosion" is now officially ranked with
photographs in Google Search Images, most prominently under several
significant listings: "Most Famous Contemporary Paintings," "Most
Famous Modern Paintings," "Most Famous Surreal Paintings," "Most Famous
Pop Art Paintings," and "Most Famous Nude Paintings."
The Warren "Sexual Explosion" master work is often listed more times
or ranked higher on Google Search Images than other heavily-entrenched
world famous challengers, from the recent past to those from past
centuries, including Leonardo da Vinci's "the Mona Lisa," Andy Warhol's
"Marilyn;" Pablo Picasso's "Nude, Green Leaves and Bust" (which was
originally purchased for $17,000 USD and was little known until it sold
for $106.5 million USD at Christie's in New York in 2010), Lucian
Freud's "Benefits Supervisor Sleeping" (which was auctioned for $33
million USD at Christie's in Manhattan in 2008), in addition to numerous
renowned Modigliani nudes.
As a matter of fact, of all the leading challengers in the 5 listings
mentioned above, "Sexual Explosion" is the only painting to be listed
in all 5! That is worth repeating: Of all the leading contenders in the
5 listings, "Sexual Explosion" is the only painting to be listed in all
5!
What was once perceived by the art establishment elite in the 1970's
in the United States as acceptable art -- led directly to the "banned
from public exhibition" status of "Sexual Explosion" for being "obscene
and sexually explicit." However, open-minded and open-eyed other art
connoisseurs at the time, mostly from the anti-establishment and the
anti-elite movement, however, viewed Jim Warren's surreal painting quite
differently, experiencing the 22' X 28" oil on canvas as being daring,
as mystical, as visionary and as liberating -- in its explosive erotic
ecstasy! Indeed, "Sexual Explosion" was a brave and shocking new art
statement that depicted the times and mirrored the American culture or
society. It was therefore, aptly named then as it is now --- "Sexual
Explosion" --- because it brought attention to the coming Sexual
Revolution which eventually was to sweep the whole world.
Yes, "Sexual Explosion" strikes a special cord that exemplifies
perfectly the Sexual Revolution that changed the sexual world and the
art world as well, but that is only one part of its importance in art
history. And while "Sexual Explosion" is 35 years older now, the girl in
the painting who is reclining on a surreal beach or in surreal heaven,
is still ageless and will remain so during the ages to come.
It should also be noted that Jim Warren also painted another
masterpiece titled "Eternal Youth" but that is a whole other fascinating
and fabled story for another time and place. We urge you to experience
"Eternal Youth" nevertheless for yourself on YouTube art music video,
"Eternal Youth Astral Love" or on http://www.artcollectorswebsite.com.
Not to be completely upstaged by "Sexual Explosion," another Jim
Warren master work (often referred to as the other Jim Warren nude) is
also achieving world renown in its own right. "Re-Birth" is now
following in "Sexual Explosion's" barefoot footprints, so to speak, for
it too, depicts nude female figures also in a Jim Warren surreal beach
or a surreal heavenly setting somewhere in his incredible imagination.
"Re-Birth" has a glorious "glow" that sets it apart from your typical
classical nude paintings. You can view an art music video entitled
"Famous Nude Painting Re-Birth Nudes by Neo Surrealist Jim Warren" on http://www.artcollectorswebsite.com
or on YouTube. (And speaking about YouTube, you will discover that Jim
Warren has a large cult following and may possibly be the most
"YouTubed" living artist today with "Tribute" videos to his art from all
corners of the earth.)
Yet, another Jim Warren original oil canvas is literally making waves
in art, too: The renowned "Running Wild" horse icon piece that was the
actual prototype art for Jim Warren's Grammy winning cover art for Bob
Seger's "Against the Wind" album in 1981. That album went on the sell
over 6,000,000 copies world-wide, thus making its image the most famous
horse icon in modern art. The "Against the Wind" Warren painting (not to
be confused with the "Running Wild" painting), is now in the art
collection of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Museum in Cleveland, Ohio.
In a press announcement, according to an Art Collectors Website
spokesman Stan Zipperman, who represents the leading online art gallery
that exhibits "Sexual Explosion," to meet new and growing public demand,
the gallery has rushed into release an "explosive" new art music video
entitled, "SEXUAL EXPLOSION - 40 Intimate Seconds with the Nude Girl
from Sexual Explosion - Famous Nude" with music by Hunger!'s cult
favorite song "She Let Him Continue." The world-premiere of the art/
music video is scheduled for presentation on Youtube for immediate
release.
It appears now that, although "Sexual Explosion" has been sequestered
over the last 35 years in a secret art collection, it has had a
dedicated cult following by those persons who knew of its existence and
had seen photos of its metaphysical and mystifying beauty. Over time,
the reputation and mystique has been growing in select art circles. More
recently, pop music stars Madonna and Lady Gaga both posed for erotic
tinged photographs similar to the facial expression struck by the girl
in the original "Sexual Explosion" painting.
What is one of the most intriguing turn of events of all, however, in
the "Sexual Explosion" phenomena, is the amazing fact that the last
name Warren comes directly after the last name Warhol in alphabetical
order.
Isn't it strange (to say the very least) that Warhol, last century's
most famous Pop Art American artist, painted last century's most famous
Pop Art Icon -- Hollywood's Marilyn Monroe!
And isn't it more strange (to say the very,very least) that we now
have Neo-Surrealist Jim Warren, whose last name comes directly after
Warhol's, as the painter of the now Most Famous Nude Painting "Sexual
Explosion." Add to this, one last piece of amazing Truth: Jim Warren was
born just outside Hollywood, California and won his first "first prize"
at an art festival in Westwood, California the place where Marilyn
Monroe now rests.
Is it that Truth is indeed Stranger than Fiction?
Or is it that Truth is a mere Co-Incidence or a Divine Master Plan?"
