The discovery of explicit artifacts in the ruins of Pompeii created a dilemma for polite society in the 18th century. The solution was a secret museum for gentlemen only.
THE SACRED AND PROFANE
The printing press democratized access to pornography, but also sparked a frenzy to censor sexually explicit material. The censorship battle had begun.
THE MECHANICAL EYE
Photography's universal appeal and facility for realism led to the creation of the porn magazine and a new breed of businessman: the porn dealer.
TWENTIETH CENTURY FOXY
The invention of moving pictures revolutionized pornography and dramatically expanded its reach. From stag films to peepshow booths to mainstream porn features, pornography leapt into the mainstream.
SEX LIVES ON VIDEOTAPE

PORNOTOPIA
In its digital incarnation on the internet, pornography appears to have triumphed and sidestepped all attempts to control it. But can it ever really deliver or do its promised fantasies remain as elusive as ever?
