Oh. My. God. It’s a penis parade!

File this one under “Shit that is happening right now that we NEED to bring to Toronto, like, YESTERDAY.” Anyway, the University of Iowa’s art program is putting together a show featuring a parade of plaster-cast moulds of John Holmes’ legendarily gigantic schlong, then decorating them until they become cock art.

Yes. Cock art. Well, you know what they say: you eat with your eyes first.

Anyway, this is definitely one of those things I feel like we need to bring up to Toronto because, let’s face it, we would fucking kill it. We’re artsy, we all value the no-no parts… I just feel like we could do this way better than a bunch of Iowa folks. No offence guys — you rock those cocks!
